CLUSTER ALOUD-ASSISTANT-READS · 10 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-09

Voice AI reading assistants

This cluster consists of voice-driven AI assistants that convert speech to text, generate replies, and read them aloud, spanning mobile, macOS, and plugin form factors. The cluster's dated history is too thin to read a shape from, as only one dated entry exists before the index start. Traction is led by voinoi with 7 stars, while orca-read-aloud and dsh-speak each have 1 star.

ENTRY TIMELINE

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
