Weekend Voice Agent

A weekend experiment turning Claude into a real-time voice assistant using browser APIs.

Diagram of the voice loop: Web Speech API to transcript to Claude API to speech synthesis, with a latency stat of ~3s down to under 1s
There's no UI to screenshot — this was a browser demo with almost no visual chrome, and the original build wasn't kept. This is the loop, reconstructed as a diagram.
The verdict

Every voice experiment dies or lives on latency.
