It lives in your notch.
On Apple-silicon MacBooks, SKI docks into the notch — black, flush with the menu bar, always in the same place. It rests as a quiet bar, then springs down into the full loop when there’s something to say.
Hear it work: it rests listening, springs open to think, then answers in violet — then folds back to the bezel.
Built for the way developers talk.
Every detail tuned for a real back-and-forth voice loop.
On-device, all of it
Speech-to-text and the voice both run on your Mac. Nothing you say ever leaves the machine.
Hears & speaks locally
Local speech in, a natural neural voice out — no cloud, no account, works offline.
Live agent status
A green dot shows your agent is actually listening — real-time, not polled.
Full-duplex barge-in
Talk over the agent and still be heard cleanly on open speakers — no push-to-talk. It knows when you're done and sends the thought whole.
A voice per project
Bind several repos at once; each answers in its own voice and routes to whichever one you're addressing.
Two ways into the room.
Local meeting transcriber
Capture mic + system audio from Zoom, Meet, or Teams — transcribed on-device with speaker-tagged tracks.
- Unlimited recording time and retention
- Zero cloud — audio never leaves the machine
- Live transcript while the meeting runs
- Export to Markdown or plain text
Your agent, in the meeting
Paste a meeting URL into the widget and your coding agent joins the call as a live participant — speaking, listening, presenting.
- Google Meet, Teams, Zoom
- Voice, avatar, or screenshare modes
- Create a Meet straight from the widget
- The one paid feature — everything else in SKI is free

One skill for every agent.
Plain answers to plain questions.
What is SKI?
A small floating app for your Mac that lets you talk out loud to your AI coding assistant — and hear it answer in a natural voice. Think of it as a phone call with the AI that helps you build software.
What's a "coding agent"?
An AI assistant developers run alongside their code — tools like Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or Gemini CLI. It can read files, write code, run tests, and answer questions. SKI gives it ears and a voice.
Does talking actually help me code?
It helps where typing doesn't — handing off a multi-step task, hearing the output while you look elsewhere, working hands-free, and accessibility. It's additive to your keyboard, not a replacement for typing exact syntax.
I don't want to talk at my computer.
It's less “dictate every character” and more “delegate a task.” You hand off a job and get a spoken result back — handy across the room, hands-free, or when your wrists need a break.
How is this different from other voice tools?
Most are speech-to-text dictation — they put your words in a box and stop. SKI is a two-way voice loop for coding agents: it answers out loud, and it shows you what your agent is doing. Different job.
Do I need an internet connection?
No. Listening, understanding, and speaking all happen on your Mac. The only feature that touches the internet is sending your agent into a video meeting — and that's optional.
Is my voice recorded or sent anywhere?
No. Your voice becomes text on your own Mac and is never uploaded. There's no cloud service listening in — there is nothing to upload to.
How much does it cost?
Free forever on Mac — register once, no credit card. Voice features and the meeting transcriber are all included. You only pay if you want your agent to join video calls through AgentCall (pay-as-you-go).
Can it transcribe my meetings?
Yes. SKI records and transcribes any meeting playing on your Mac — Zoom, Meet, or Teams — with no time limit, stored only on your machine, exportable as text.
What Mac do I need?
Any Mac on macOS 14.4 (Sonoma) or newer. Apple Silicon (M1 and up) is fastest. English today; more languages planned.
Just ski it.
Free for life on macOS. Register once — no card — and the voice loop, the meeting transcriber, everything on-device is yours forever. You pay only if your agent joins calls through AgentCall.
