Q: When will the AI model be upgraded?
Folks,
your concept with Pismo is really good, but the AI model behind it is much worse with the same embedded prompt/context than Letterly. And Letterly mostly deals with paraphrasing. Speech to Note at least uses Claude Sonnet 4.6 and recognizes more sharply what is really supposed to happen with the embedded text when selecting a prompt/context.
Also checked with Opus 4.8 on Max Reasoning.
Pismo completely failed and utterly flopped to understand a clear, sharp, and deeply thought-out prompt/context.
Sorry, even if it’s a lifetime deal, this is no longer acceptable here on Appsumo after launch.
Only usable as kindergarten toy in its current form.
What a pity.
My review refers to the launch period on Appsumo. It is no longer a usable tool!

Jul 30, 2026A: We're testing different models. The model we currently use is the best in terms of speed and quality. For Pismo, we use the OpenAI stack instead of Anthropic. With the BYOD feature, you can connect any model you want. We support hundreds of models through OpenRouter.
