No key. No account. Nothing leaves the box. The model and the microphone both stay on your machine.

Bring your own

Coding agents
The coding agent you already use can control the device directly. Claude Code and Claude Desktop connect with guided setup; any other MCP client works today with the base zeph-device skill.
Anthropic's coding agent, in your terminal.
Claude on your desktop, MCP-ready.
OpenAI's coding agent.
The AI code editor.
Point it at Zeph's MCP server and the base skill drives the device.
Connect it to Zeph's MCP server and the base skill drives the device.
Any MCP client works with the base zeph-device skill; connect it in the companion's MCP page.
On the glass
An agent talks to Zeph from your computer; an app runs on the device itself: a glanceable face for one AI tool you use, answered with a button or your voice. These are on the way.

Ask by voice, hear the sourced answer, and keep an eye on your searches left.

Record a thought or a meeting; it transcribes live and files an AI summary with the action items.

Watch a research agent work through dozens of sources, and buzz you when the report lands.

Your 5-hour and weekly caps at a glance: which one stops you first.

Speak a line and hear it back in your own cloned voice, your character budget in view.

Your calendar, inbox and one focus for the day, gathered and read aloud.
Collection
Hold the button, say the thing, let go. Some of these engines never leave your machine; the rest want a key you probably already have.

Collection
You are already paying for one. Point the device at that key. It will never ask you for another, and it will never ask you which one to use twice.
