Ariadne Voice listens for one wake word and does the rest: reads your mail, checks your calendar, turns off the lights, tells you who is at the door. No hunting across the screen, no shortcuts to memorise.
Requires macOS 26 or later. Install and update without looking at the screen.
Information carried by colour. A button with no name. A window that pops up and takes away the place you were reading.
A screen reader describes what is on the screen — and that is an enormous thing. But describing is not the same as doing.
Ariadne Voice adds what a screen reader cannot: it carries out the request.
“Find the contract from Kowalski and reply that I agree.” One sentence instead of ten steps through windows, lists and fields.
If a task takes more than a moment, Ariadne says so. Esc stops it at any time — no button to hunt for.
The home, the cameras, the calendar, the mail, and whether your people got there.
“Is there a car outside?” has no answer on the screen. Ariadne takes a snapshot from the camera and tells you what is on it.
One wake word instead of ten clicks. Everything you do on your Mac can now simply be said.
Install without looking at the screen. After that, you just talk.
One file to download. The installer walks you through it and is read end to end by VoiceOver.
“Hey Ariadne” or Command Control Option Space — from any app, even when the Ariadne window is closed.
In a plain sentence, not a command. If a task takes a while, Ariadne says so; Esc stops it at any moment.
VoiceOver, the microphone and the whole system are already on your desk. Ariadne Voice adds a layer of understanding: instead of describing buttons, it carries out the request. No new devices, no new program to learn.
Ariadne lives in the menu bar and usually has no window. This is the only one it has — built from native macOS controls, so a screen reader knows their role and value without our help.
It does not replace your screen reader — it does what a screen reader cannot: it carries out the request instead of describing the buttons.
Built for independence at the computer — and for the people who want to help.
A computer you talk to. No screen maps, no guessing where a button hid.
When reading the screen is tiring and magnification isn't enough. Ariadne reads and acts instead of making you search.
Home control and checking whether someone got there — without having to ask anyone for help.
Instead of learning another program, you say what you want. Ariadne asks before anything that cannot be undone.
Because you have no way to check for yourself — so we say it plainly.
One file. The installer walks you through it and is read by VoiceOver from beginning to end.
Requires macOS 26 or later. The app updates itself quietly and holds the install until your conversation ends — nothing interrupts you mid-sentence.
We answer every message. Reports about safety and accessibility come first.
