Most AI assistants do not understand developers. They mangle variable names, fail to recognize terminal commands, and produce gibberish when you try to dictate code. Ahsk is different. It is built with developer workflows in mind. Voice dictation that accurately captures camelCase, snake_case, terminal commands, git syntax, and programming terminology. AI assistance that works directly in VS Code, Terminal, Xcode, and every tool you use.
Voice Dictation That Understands Code
Standard voice dictation tools fail developers. They hear "camel case" when you say "camelCase." They do not recognize function names, variable syntax, or programming terms. Ahsk is trained to understand developer vocabulary. Say "git commit dash m fix authentication bug" and get exactly that. Say "const user equals await fetch user" and the syntax is correct. Response time is under 250ms, fast enough for real coding workflows.
Works in Your Development Environment
Ahsk integrates with every development tool on your Mac. VS Code, Xcode, Terminal, iTerm, Warp, Sublime Text, Vim, Emacs, JetBrains IDEs, and more. Select code, ask questions about it, get explanations. Dictate code comments, commit messages, and documentation without touching the keyboard. This is AI assistance where you actually work, not in a separate browser tab.
Terminal and Git Command Support
Dictate terminal commands and git operations accurately. "cd projects slash ahsk" becomes "cd projects/ahsk". "git checkout dash b feature slash authentication" becomes "git checkout -b feature/authentication". No more typing long commands. Speak them and Ahsk captures them correctly.
Code Explanation and Documentation
Select any code block and ask Ahsk to explain it. Get clear explanations of what the code does, how it works, and potential issues. Generate documentation comments from existing code. This works in any language: JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Swift, Rust, Go, and more.
Translate Developer Documentation
Working with documentation in another language? Ahsk translates technical content in 50+ languages while preserving code examples and technical accuracy. Read Japanese library docs, Spanish tutorials, or German technical papers in your native language.

Does Ahsk work in VS Code?
Yes. Ahsk works in VS Code, Xcode, Terminal, JetBrains IDEs, Sublime Text, and every other development tool on your Mac.
How fast is voice dictation for coding?
Ahsk voice dictation responds in under 250ms. This is fast enough for real coding workflows where you need immediate feedback.
Can Ahsk explain code?
Yes. Select any code block in any editor and ask Ahsk to explain it. Works with JavaScript, Python, Swift, Rust, Go, and any programming language.
Is Ahsk better than GitHub Copilot for voice coding?
For voice dictation, yes. Copilot does not have voice input. Ahsk lets you dictate code, commands, and comments with accurate syntax recognition. They serve different purposes and can be used together.
