CLUSTER VOICE-MACOS-ASSISTANT · 26 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-04

macOS voice AI assistants

This cluster consists of voice-controlled macOS assistants that use AI agents to answer questions, control applications, and execute tasks via spoken commands, with some offering on-device speech processing or cross-device support. The dated history before the index start contains no entries, so the cluster's timeline shape is too thin to read — it predates the index or its members are undated. Among traction leaders, mercury-voice shows the highest activity signal with 10 stars, followed by Jarhead and mkay with 6 stars each.

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.
