How to use voice mode with the AI Agent in Skills

Voice mode with the AI agent in Skills

Updated yesterday

Note that this feature is available only for users who have access to Skills.

Ovid, our AI Agent, will respond to you in text when you use Voice Mode. We’re actively working on teaching Ovid how to speak back to you, so stay tuned for upcoming updates!

Voice Mode lets you speak directly to Ovid, our AI Agent, instead of typing. This makes conversations feel more natural, faster, and hands-free - perfect for practicing coaching skills, asking quick questions, or thinking aloud during reflection.


Why use voice mode?

  • More natural interaction: Speaking often feels easier and more fluid than typing, especially when you want to express complex ideas or emotions.

  • Faster than typing: Say what’s on your mind without slowing down to write it out.

  • Hands-free flexibility: Useful if you’re multitasking or prefer talking instead of typing.

  • Better practice for coaching: If you’re practicing coaching conversations, voice mode helps simulate a more realistic dialogue.


How to access voice mode

  1. Open any Skill in your workspace.

  2. At the bottom of the discussion panel, locate the text input box.

  3. On the right side, next to Send to AI, you’ll see a microphone icon.

  4. Click the microphone to activate Voice Mode. If you have multiple audio input devices (like a headset mic and a webcam mic), you can select which microphone to use before starting a voice recording.

  5. Speak your message - the AI will transcribe your words and respond just as if you typed them.
