Live, letter-by-letter conversations between two people.

No history, end-to-end encrypted, inside a CRT terminal with ghost-radio transmissions. Free on Android and iPhone.

Could you build this?

Yes Live letter-by-letter sync over websockets, fading text, no history and a CRT-style UI are all standard front-end and real-time work. End-to-end encryption can use an established library, so the build is within vibe-coding reach.
