What You Can Do
-
Connect and switch agents
Pick from your available agents. The Voice Agent disconnects from the current session before switching—no duplicate sessions or confusion. -
Ask or command anything
Speak naturally. The Voice Agent interprets broad, even vague, requests. You don’t need to be exact; it figures out what you want using context. -
Control the mic
Mute, unmute, start, and stop conversations with a click or command. Status indicators show if you’re connected, connecting, or idle. -
See agent details
Once you pick an agent, you see its name, purpose, category, and unique motion (whatever that means in your setup). -
Quick troubleshooting
If something’s off (API issues, missing token), you’ll get a clear error and a retry button.
Pro tip: Set up your environment variables:HUME_VOICE_API_KEYandHUME_SECRET.
