Oasis
 
 
Oasis is a titanium smart ring from Oasis Devices that lets you control your devices through subvocal voice, touch, and motion control: no phone, no screen, and no talking out loud.

It packs a noise-isolating built-in mic, a capacitive touch trackpad with optical tracking (described as the world's first 2D trackpad on a ring), 16 hours of battery on a single charge, and precision haptics. It pairs with iPhone, Mac, and Vision Pro, and has a featured integration with Wispr Flow for dictation.

Why we like it:
it's one of the more credible attempts at silent/subvocal speech as an input method, relevant to voice AI beyond the "talking out loud to an assistant" paradigm, especially for private or noise-sensitive settings.

It's currently available for preorder at $289, shipping for Christmas 2026 (nothing like a special Christmas gift for yourself).
 
Agent Games
 
 
HeyClicky is a Mac-native AI assistant from Farza Majeed that sits right next to your cursor, sees your screen, and listens when you talk. Ask a question out loud and it walks you through whatever you're working on. Or say "heyclicky agent" and it'll spin up an agent to build, research, or do whatever for you in the background. Under the hood it's a screen vision plus voice input pipeline built on AssemblyAI and ElevenLabs for transcription and speech synthesis, and it connects to whatever app the user is actively working in; think Figma-to-webpage conversion, code editors, PDFs, and browsers.

Easily one of the coolest onboarding experiences we have seen in recent times.

Why we like it:
it's a good example of voice as the ambient control layer for a screen-aware agent rather than a standalone chat window. You just talk to it like an always-on assistant across Figma, coding tools, PDFs, and browsers. No typing, no context-switching. It's also a nice data point on distribution:

Farza built Buildspace into a movement of 100,000+ builders before winding it down in 2024, and that audience carried straight into HeyClicky's early traction
 
  
 
Founder
How did you end up in voice?
A few years ago, I was helping a friend book a DMV appointment. I called in, and the agent on the other end took all my details and booked the slot, smooth, natural, completely human. Or so I thought. At the very end of the call, the voice told me it was an AI and asked me to rate the conversation. I was stunned. I'd just had a full, natural conversation with a machine and hadn't even noticed. That moment flipped a switch in me: if AI could do this in English, why not in Uzbek and the other languages of our region? From that day, I started working on voice AI and that's how NavAI was born.

What's your struggle or moment of joy with voice?
The hardest part has been the language itself. Uzbek is a low-resource language, no clean datasets, no off-the-shelf models, nothing to build on. We had to train on thousands of hours of real speech from scratch. But that's also where the joy is. The first time our AI handled a real customer call end-to-end in Uzbek and the caller spoke to it as naturally as they would to a person was unforgettable. Seeing people in our region finally served by technology in their own language is what keeps me going.

Where do you think voice is going?
Everywhere. I think voice becomes the default way we interact with technology. Just as we moved from typing commands to tapping screens, we'll gradually shift from keyboards to simply speaking. Apps will let you navigate and take actions by voice; calling a business will mean talking to an AI that genuinely understands you in your own language, 24/7. Typing won't disappear, but voice will become the most natural interface. And the regions and languages that text-first technology left behind will finally be included.
