In my spare time, I’m building Magical.pm, an AI product management co-pilot that generates software requirements from natural language.
A few weeks ago, I was at a writing event here in NYC, and someone joked about adding "Poem mode" to Magical. We thought it would be funny if Magical returned requirements in sonnet form.
When I got home, I realized it would be easy to implement—as simple as modifying the prompts to create alternate voices for the generations.
So, I added the feature, calling it Goofballs. I created three Goofballs (totally obnoxious and fun): – Shakespeare Mode – Gen-Z Mode – Tech Bro Mode
I also added prank links so people can send Magical.pm to a friend in Goofball Mode without the friend knowing.
When the friend generates requirements, they'll be surprised with the selected Goofball Mode, complete with ridiculous fonts.
Figure this could be especially fun on April Fool's Day. Happy pranking!

(I did try a fake requirement in "Gen Z" mode and did laugh at how accurate the generated card was!)
