# Moonshine Voice
**Voice Interfaces for Everyone**
[Moonshine](https://moonshine.ai) Voice is an open source AI toolkit for developers building real-time voice agents and applications.
Full guides, models, and API reference are at **[moonshine-voice.readthedocs.io](https://moonshine-voice.readthedocs.io/)**.
- Everything runs on-device — fast, private, and with no account or API keys.
- Optimized for live streaming, with low latency by doing work while the user is still talking.
- Speech to text models trained from scratch, from [higher accuracy than Whisper Large V3](https://huggingface.co/spaces/hf-audio/open_asr_leaderboard) down to [tiny 1MB models](micro/README.md).
- One library across [Python, JavaScript/WASM, iOS, Android, macOS, Linux, Windows, and Raspberry Pi](https://moonshine-voice.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart/).
## Quickstart
<!-- doc-test: parse-only -->
```bash
pip install moonshine-voice
moonshine-voice mic --language en
```
Every other platform is covered in the [Quickstart](https://moonshine-voice.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart/), with runnable samples in [Examples](https://moonshine-voice.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples/).
Building with a coding agent? Copy [`.agents/skills/moonshine-voice/`](https://github.com/moonshine-ai/moonshine/tree/main/.agents/skills/moonshine-voice) into your project's `.agents/skills/` folder, or run `npx skills add moonshine-ai/moonshine --skill moonshine-voice`. The skill teaches the current API shape so the agent does not reach for Whisper or the old `DialogFlow` names.
