At Rime, we believe that when it comes to building with AI, typing should be optional, and creativity, limitless.
Today, we’re thrilled to introduce Rime Console: the first voice-only playground built by voice, for voice. It’s a fully conversational interface that lets you design, iterate, and export AI voices, without ever touching your keyboard.
A Voice-Only Workflow for a Voice-First World
Rime Console is more than a demo; it’s a working glimpse into the future of voice-first UI and generative AI for voice.
Want to summon a southern-accented cowboy therapist? A Shakespearean CFO? An upbeat mindfulness coach with a jazz-radio tone?
Say the word, and it’s live.
Here’s how it works:
Talk to Rime like you would a voice agent:
“Orion, explain social thermodynamics and cybernetics in 30 seconds.”Get a polished, TED-style response from one of Rime’s expressive AI voices.
Adjust settings in real time, by saying:
“Lower your temperature to 0.5.”Save that exact persona as a JSON config, ready to deploy in your IVR, AI assistant, or next-gen voice product.
Everything happens in conversation. No toggles, no dropdowns. Just fast iteration, expressive personalities, and total control—all in voice.
See It in Action
In our launch video, Matt (our head of engineering) chats with Orion, our smooth-talking narrator voice, and runs through prompts like:
“Tell me the difference between fusion and fission.”
“Increase your repetition penalty.”
“Now give me a southern cowboy who teaches meditation.”
Each interaction is instant. Every voice is editable. And each AI persona is saved as a deployable config: ideal for voice agent developers, product teams, and UX designers working in Voice AI.
Why We Built This
Because building voice agents shouldn’t require painful trial and error copy/pasting scripts and clicking through endless lists of voices before even getting to parameter tuning.
With Rime Console, you can:
Explore endless voice personas and accents
Create on-brand voice experiences that speak your product’s tone
Design and test with your voice alone
Export JSON configs for seamless voice agent deployment
Whether you're building contact center voice agents, interactive IVRs, or AI-powered voice assistants, Rime Console gives you the fastest way to prototype and launch.
