Voice-first AI workspace · Open source

Talk.
It works.

Relay listens while you think out loud. It hands the work to agents in the background, and shows what they find on a live canvas you can see and change.

Runs on your own computer. Bring your own model keys.

Most AI tools make you type, then wait. Relay lets you talk while the work happens somewhere else. You stay in the conversation. The results come to you.

How it works

Three steps. You only do the first.

01 / 03

You talk

Say what you want, the way you would to a teammate. Interrupt, change your mind, add more. Relay keeps up.

02 / 03

Agents do the work

Relay splits the job and hands each part to an agent in the background. Several can run at once. The talk stays free.

03 / 03

You see it on the canvas

Results arrive as boxes, notes and slides on a live canvas. Relay points at what matters while it explains.

Demo

One sentence in. A plan on the board.

A live mock of a real session. A screen recording will go here later.

Features

Built for thinking out loud.

Your voice runs the show. The screen shows the detail.

Voice first

Talk instead of type. Cut in at any time. Short spoken answers, with the long version on screen.

Background agents

Slow work runs in agents you never have to babysit. Ask for status, stop one, or start three more.

Live canvas

Boxes, arrows, notes and slides appear as Relay talks. Drag them, edit them, and it sees your changes.

An interface that adapts

The agent can move panels, change the theme or build a new view. Changes you like stay. Built on Fluid UI.

Asks before it acts

Anything that sends, deletes or spends waits for your yes. Every step is written down so you can check it later.

Yours, on your machine

Runs locally. Your files stay with you. Swap the model, the voice or the agents without asking anyone.

Install

Running in two minutes.
