About the project
RapRhymes explores rhyme beyond spelling. Its web experience uses pronunciation data to surface useful word matches and help writers keep their flow moving.
The problem
Spelling is a poor guide to how words rhyme. The project explores search based on spoken sound and writing intent.
What I worked on
I built the web search experience and its pronunciation-based rhyme index and page system.
- Designed a pronunciation-aware rhyme search model and language contracts.
- Built web and phonetic core packages for the developing experience.
- Documented source provenance and evaluation requirements before publishing a broader corpus.

What I learned
Good rhyme suggestions depend on pronunciation, context, and trustworthy source material.
