Natural language, and in particular voice on glasses, will be a key interface for the future of personal computing. If you're excited about these ideas too, give our preview a try and reach out
Today we're announcing our @sesame iOS app preview, giving you a first look at our collection of personal agents, a new way to explore your curiosity and think out loud.
We’ve come a long way since the Research Preview from last year: new features, new characters, and better capabilities.

Voice is the next great interface shift.
We're partnering with @brendaniribe, @natemitchell, @_apkumar, @2rhb & the @Sesame team to bring computers to life, not just as tools, but as thought partners.
Maya and Miles are learning new languages!
This week, we deployed a new voice model to our web demo with improved support for Spanish, French, German, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.
Give it a try and let us know what you think: https://t.co/Edp8V8tTr4
We asked @kirstenagreen what she's most excited about in AI.
"Voice. The amount of information people share over voice compared to typing is tenfold."
"We are just in the early stages. @sesame is very exciting."
🔊 Excited to announce: @codegen is now GA!! 🎉
2 years ago, we set out to build an agentic developer.
With Claude 3.7, it's now possible like never before - and it's absolutely killer.
Build with @codegen across Slack, Github and Linear. It's transformed how we work. 👇
the core research team behind the sesame voice model is <9 ppl
as @_apkumar walked through in our latest 1.5 hr podcast, talent density beats team size most days
HOLY SHITT, Sesame Labs just dropped CSM (Conversational Speech Model) - Apache 2.0 licensed! 💥
> Trained on 1 MILLION hours of data 🤯
> Contextually aware, emotionally intelligent speech
> Voice cloning & watermarking
> Ultra fast, real-time synthesis
> Based on llama architecture & Mimi like decoder
> Apache 2.0 licensed
> Weights on the Hub
So cool to see such a strong Speech backbone out in the wild! Kudos @sesame team! 🤗
We're excited to be getting all the great feedback. Some of you may have noticed that Maya and Miles have been getting busy these past few hours. Rest assured, we're working to help them answer more calls!
what comes after smartphones?
AI glasses you actually want to talk to
we @a16z are excited to invest in @sesame’s mission to bring the computer to life:
We’re exploring a future where the computer isn’t just a tool—it’s a partner with a truly natural voice and personality. No big claims, just early work we’re excited to share. @sesame
Excited to share our progress 🔥
