Anthropic Releases Voice Mode Revamping Claude Interaction

Anthropic has rolled out a new voice mode for its Claude chatbot apps. The beta feature allows users to have full spoken conversations via Claude. It promises to make interactions more natural when users have busy hands but active minds. The feature supports English and offers five unique voice options that can be switched instantly with text mode. Users receive on-screen highlights along with a transcript and summary after every conversation. The technology is powered by Anthropic’s Claude Sonnet 4 model and counts against regular usage limits. Free users get around 20-30 voice chats per month while paid subscribers access extra Google Workspace integrations. Discussion continues about potential partnerships with Amazon and ElevenLabs.
