Engineering student builds AI-assisted typing trainer with 31 sub-levels and bigram tracking

·1 views

A first-year engineering physics student has launched WorkThoseKeys, a free typing trainer built using Lovable, a prompt-based AI app builder, without writing code by hand. The tool features 31 sub-levels across eight stages, introducing one finger at a time before combining them, with each level structured around warmup, weak points, integration, and a progress check. Unlike most typing trainers, it tracks per-bigram error rates — identifying which letter pairs a user struggles with — and separates keyboard layout settings from content language. The app also includes an AI coach that translates typing data into plain-language advice, and a book mode that lets users type real public-domain literature, from short poems to the full text of Moby-Dick. All features are available for free with no sign-up required, though users can log in with Google to save stats and streaks.

EODHD MCP Server Lets Developers Build Multi-Source Financial AI Agents Faster

Developers building financial AI agents typically must connect multiple separate APIs for prices, fundamentals, news, and earnings data, creating fragmented and brittle orchestration logic. Model Context Protocol (MCP) addresses this by standardizing how AI models discover and call external tools, allowing the model itself to decide which data sources to query. EODHD has released an official MCP server offering over 70 financial data tools — covering fundamentals, historical and real-time prices, earnings calendars, news, and sentiment — accessible through a single hosted endpoint. Using Anthropic's Claude and EODHD's MCP server, developers can build agents capable of answering complex, multi-source financial questions without writing custom API wrapper functions. The approach reduces development overhead and shifts data-routing logic from the developer to the AI model itself.

Search Interest in AI Governance Frameworks Signals Growing Enterprise Focus

Monthly US search volume for the phrase 'AI governance framework' stands at roughly 3,600 queries, according to trend data from Treendly, suggesting rising interest in structured AI oversight. An AI governance framework is an organizing concept that helps organizations decide how to approve, monitor, and remain accountable for AI systems across departments including legal, risk, and operations. As AI shifts from experimentation into core business processes, more cross-functional leaders appear to be seeking structured guidance rather than ad-hoc approaches. Without a shared framework, teams risk evaluating AI use cases in isolation, leading to inconsistent standards for risk, documentation, and accountability. While search volume indicates directional interest rather than confirmed adoption, analysts note it may reflect demand for governance templates, assessment tools, and policy guidance.
