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.
Voice as the interface to a coding agent is more interesting than it first sounds, because the hard part isn't dictation, it's knowing when to interrupt. If I'm talking while the agent is mid-task, does it queue what I said, or does it treat it as a course correction and abandon the current step? Curious where you landed on that.
I run Claude Code daily and the output itself was never the problem, it's zoning out halfway through a long scrolling session and missing the part that actually mattered. Reading holds my attention for maybe 30 seconds before I start skimming. Hearing usually doesn't do that to me. I am definitely going to try this one.
@itskellysun makes sense, the reasoning-pass override on top of the per-session read is the part I like - a pure fixed rule table would misjudge the edge cases constantly. shipping the heuristic now and layering personal preference on top later seems like the right build order rather than trying to learn preferences from day one with no baseline behavior.
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?
Triforce Todos
Not every product needs to be flashy to stand out.
When you've got Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex all doing their thing, you don't want to babysit five terminals. You just want to know when something important happens.
That's why I was excited to hunt @Heard today.
It's simple, useful, open source, and feels like one of those products you'll wonder how you worked without.
Really excited to bring this one to the Product Hunt community. Give it a spin, ask the makers your toughest questions, and let us know what you'd build with it.

@abod_rehman thank you Abdul! means a lot to the team. please ask us the toughest questions and looking forward to hearing any feedback!
Congrats! what inspired you to focus on spoken summaries instead of visual dashboards?was there a specific pain point that pushed you in this direction?

@theo_eli i hated reading through 10 terminal windows to catch up on what each one is doing, and I hated how verbose some of these LLMs are, they don't need to be that!

@kailong_20 attention is all your need ;)
