Overview
- Developers can toggle the feature with /voice to issue spoken requests inside Claude Code, such as “refactor the authentication middleware.”
- Users granted access will see a notice on the Claude Code welcome screen indicating the feature is available.
- Anthropic has not detailed usage limits or technical constraints, and it has not confirmed whether a provider like ElevenLabs powers the voices.
- The company reported Claude Code run-rate revenue above $2.5 billion in February 2026, with weekly active users doubling since January.
- The expansion arrives in a crowded market that includes GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Google, and OpenAI, as Claude’s mobile app recently topped the U.S. App Store after the firm restricted certain Department of Defense uses.
