Weeks after OpenAI launched a new family of conversational models and updated ChatGPT’s voice mode, rival Anthropic is taking steps to make Claude more voice-friendly with a new update. The company said Thursday that users can choose between Opus, Sonnet and Haiku models.

Claude’s voice mode, which launched last year and runs on the Haiku model, provided quick responses but wasn’t well suited for complex work. The company said that with the new update, the voice mode chooses the last model that people used in text chat and uses its fastest version by default.

Anthropic said the new voice mode can help users with longer conversations, including providing feedback on their communication style, talking to a customer, and brainstorming product market research.

Additionally, Claude’s voice mode can access other apps such as Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, Canva, and Notion. This means users can ask you to update a meeting time, compose an email, or create a document in Notion.

In particular, this is a big difference from OpenAI’s voice mode, which updated its conversational style but still can’t use different tools to get the job done.

Earlier this year, Anthropic added multilingual support to Claude’s voice mode in beta. He said users can now speak in multiple languages, but they have to specify the language manually. At the moment, Anthropic supports English, French, German, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazilian), and Spanish (Latin America/Spain).

The new voice mode is available to all users in beta on all platforms. However, free users will be restricted to using the Haiku model with a single connected app.

Anthropic has not made any changes to the voice model with this release and has not detailed what type of voice stack it uses. That means that, unlike the OpenAI launch, users may not find coverage improvements, such as better handling of interruptions.
