Give Claude Code and Codex a voice

Heard is a macOS voice layer for your agentic workflows. It connects to Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor and turns their output into intelligent summaries you can hear. Full commentary when your eyes are elsewhere, or silence until something errors or needs a decision. With agents run in parallel, Heard summarizes at the project level, so you hear where the work stands, not five terminals talking over each other. Pair your phone and it comes with you. Open source, free for personal use.

Congrats on the launch Kelly! The thing I keep hitting is not knowing whether an agent is actually stuck waiting on me or just still working. Does Heard speak up only when it needs an answer from you, or does it narrate as it goes?
@terminal_candy hey peter you can pick different modes as settings and it does both!
This sounds amazing for anyone running multiple things at once. I do not always have my eyes on the screen and missing an error will cost time. I like that it only interrupts when it actually matters. Congratulations on your launch.
Does this work for non-developers or is it built specifically for coders?
@cheryl_youngsa absolutely works for non developers! jarvis tends to explain complicated things well for non developers too
Congrats on the launch. How does Heard handle conflicting updates across parallel agents? If one agent finishes successfully while another discovers a change that invalidates its work, does the project-level summary surface that dependency, or does each session remain isolated?
@akarsh_hegde i believe it would think it's important enough to surface that as dependency!
@itskellysun That makes sense. Surfacing the dependency is the critical part. Would Heard also explain why the work may be invalidated, or only flag that the sessions conflict?
@itskellysun, this is awesome! Any chance you can share an invite code for the Power beta?
@whyyasgwhy only for our PH fans :) go to: https://heard.dev/power and code: friendsofheard!
Congratulations! the workflow sounds perfect for developers who multitask. can heard be configured to ignore specific repositories or projects? that would be useful for reducing noise.
@olivia_bennett7 hey olivia! that's an awesome idea. it doesn't work in the free plan atm but works in Heard Power (code: friendsofheard)
I like the “useful update, not a transcript” framing. I’ve definitely lost time babysitting parallel agent terminals; curious how you decide when to stay silent vs interrupt for a decision?
First let me say congrats on the launch. I've enjoyed using the app. The value that I find in having claude speak to me when it's needing my attention is vast. One of my favorite features is the ability to configure each of my projects with a `.heard.yml` that provides voice configuration for the project. I often am building out 3 projects at a time in parallel, so being able to hear different voices per project is very helpful, and honestly, fun!
There are a few rough edges in the product, but overall, I highly recommend giving this a try!
@coderberry3 Eric - I'd love to get in touch and get a list of where your bugs are. can you write an email to kelly@heard.dev?
