Voice coding for AI agents
DashVox is a voice-first IDE for AI coding agents. Instead of typing in an editor, you run, steer, and review Claude Code and Codex by voice over SSH. It is built for your ears, not your eyes: output is spoken, approvals are verbal, and the screen is optional by design.
Speak the work
Start tasks, run tests, and describe changes out loud. The agent turns it into real edits on your machine.
Hear the results
Output is spoken and summarized, not dumped as a wall of terminal text. Built for your ears, not your eyes.
Dictate, then review
Let the agent draft while you are away from the desk, and review the diff when you are back at a screen.
In the car, done right
Hands-free voice on phone and watch, plus a native CarPlay app with simple, glanceable controls for driving.
Why voice, and not just another mobile editor
Coding is shifting toward describing intent and reviewing what an agent produces. Once the agent is doing the typing, a keyboard is no longer the only way in. Voice becomes the natural interface: faster to issue a command than to thumb-type it, and usable in the moments a screen is not, like driving, walking, or stepping away from the desk.
DashVox leans all the way into that. The agent runs on your real machine over SSH, you speak what you want, and you hear what happened. When you want to read a diff or dig into the terminal, the screen is right there, just never required.
Voice coding FAQ
What is voice coding?
Voice coding means writing and running software by speaking instead of typing. With DashVox you talk to AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex) running on your own machine: you describe the change, run tests, and approve steps by voice, and the agent does the editing while it reads results back to you.
Is DashVox a voice-first IDE?
Yes. DashVox is a voice-first IDE for AI coding agents. Instead of an editor you read and type in, you run, steer, and review sessions by voice over SSH. Some people call it a voice IDE or a voice coding environment.
Can I use it fully hands-free?
On your phone or watch, yes: the voice-driven mode works by voice alone, with output read aloud. In the car, the native CarPlay app keeps it to a few large, glanceable controls, which is safer than a hands-free free-for-all while driving.
Do I still get to review the code?
Always. You can dictate the change you want and let the agent draft it, then review the diff when you are back at a screen. The screen is there when you want it, never required.
