The benefits of speech to text in VS Code
Longer, clearer prompts for your AI assistant
Explain the bug or the feature in full sentences.
More context usually means better answers from Copilot, Claude Code or Codex.
Reduced strain on your fingers and wrist
By completely cutting out the thousands of keystrokes we make every day, Voicy simply reduces the need to use your fingers and keyboard.
An ergonomic mouse and keyboard are great. No keyboard is even better.
One shortcut for VS Code and every other app
Voicy works in the editor, the terminal, Copilot Chat and AI extensions.
The same shortcut works in Slack, GitHub and your browser.
Accurate speech to text for coding in VS Code
Voicy adds talk to text functionality to your computer, so you can dictate anywhere in Visual Studio Code: GitHub Copilot Chat, AI extensions like Claude Code and Codex, the integrated terminal, comments, commit messages and Markdown docs.
Explain a bug or describe a feature in full sentences, then review the text before you send it. Longer, clearer prompts usually get better answers from your AI coding assistant.
Finally, Voicy works in 50+ languages, including Spanish, German, Russian, Hindi, French, Dutch and many more.
VS Code's built-in dictation vs Voicy
VS Code now has built-in dictation for chat, the editor and the terminal. On supported systems it runs on your computer, and it can use a Copilot language model to clean up punctuation and formatting. On systems it doesn't support, such as Intel Macs, you need Microsoft's VS Code Speech extension instead.
Voicy gives you one shortcut that works the same in VS Code and every other app, from your terminal and Slack to GitHub in the browser. You get 99%+ accuracy in 50+ languages, automatic punctuation, AI commands to clean up a rough prompt, and offline dictation in the desktop app.
