Voxa Code

Voxa turns your phone into a line to your laptop. Talk to a voice operator that drives your AI coding agent, and your laptop calls you back the moment the work is done, even when your phone is locked. Start a task by voice, hang up, and go. When the agent finishes or needs you, your phone rings with a real call. Answer, hear the result, and reply by voice to keep going. It is coding without the keyboard: from the couch, the kitchen, or the road. HOW IT WORKS - Pair once by scanning a QR code from your laptop. - Speak your task in plain words. - Your laptop rings you when it is done. FEATURES - Voice operator that turns speech into real actions - Agent-initiated calls, even on the lock screen - Live transcript of everything said and done - Private: sessions are gated by your own token, nothing is exposed publicly - Your code stays on your machine; the agent runs on your laptop, not our servers - A calm, native iPhone app built to do one job well Voxa is also open source. Self-host it with your own keys for free, or go Pro for a fully hosted relay and the call-back service. Today Voxa drives Claude Code. Support for more coding agents is coming soon.

Your agents run on your machine. You watch from your phone. farcrew keeps a terminal session alive on a computer you own - a Mac, a Linux box, a VPS - and puts it in your pocket. Start a long run at your desk, close the lid, and pick it up on the train. Nothing was running on the phone, so nothing stopped. THE LOOP IT WAS BUILT FOR An agent works for twenty minutes, then stops to ask you something. Until you answer, it does nothing. farcrew notices the moment a session starts waiting and tells your phone. You read the question, type the answer, and the run continues. WHAT YOU GET • Every run in one list - waiting first, then running, then finished, across every machine you have paired. • A real terminal, not a remote control. Type, scroll, search the scrollback, pinch to resize the type, send Esc, Tab, Ctrl-C and the arrows from a key bar built for a thumb. • Attach a photo or a file to a session straight from your phone. • Notifications when a run needs you, and only then - a session you are already looking at never pings you. • Port previews: publish a dev server from your machine on a secret URL and open it anywhere. • Workspaces that keep the same shape on the phone, the desktop app and the web console. WORKS WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY RUN Anything that lives in a terminal: coding agents, build scripts, test suites, log tails, a plain shell. farcrew does not wrap a particular tool - it carries the terminal. BUILT SO WE CANNOT READ IT What is on your terminal is encrypted on your device and decrypted on your machine, with a key the two of them negotiate directly (X25519, AES-256-GCM). Our relay forwards ciphertext it holds no key for. Each machine's identity is pinned the first time you connect, and the app tells you loudly if it ever changes. Sign-in is a password plus a passkey, with recovery codes for the day the passkey is gone. WHAT YOU NEED • A computer of your own, running macOS or Linux, that stays on while your work does. • The farcrew daemon installed on it - one command, then a pairing code. • A farcrew account. farcrew is not a shell that runs on your phone, and it is not a cloud that runs your code. It is the wire between the machine you already trust and the phone already in your hand. Questions: support@farcrew.app
