Overview
What Claude Voice is
Voice mode lets users speak to Claude, hear spoken responses, interrupt naturally, switch between text and voice, and use supported connected tools such as Gmail, Calendar, Docs, and Slack. It supports hands-free and push-to-talk interaction.
Voice uses the models available on the user's Claude plan and counts against regular usage limits. Background noise, connectivity, device permissions, tool latency, and saved conversation transcripts are important practical and privacy considerations.
