VibeKeys Max now works better across Windows, Codex, and day-to-day key handling. This update covers three pieces: Vibetty, the remote terminal bridge; VibeKeys app, the desktop configuration tool; and firmware, the software running on the device itself.

This update improves all three:

• Vibetty now runs on Windows, so remote control and voice-driven terminal workflows are no longer limited to macOS and Linux.
• VibeKeys app adds Codex support, including Codex hook mode and a Codex keymap profile for keyboard mode.
• VibeKeys firmware v0.3.1 fixes the default MIC key mapping and improves key release handling on the device.

If you already have a VibeKeys Max, we recommend updating both the desktop software and the device firmware.

OpenAI just announced a keyboard for Codex — physical controls for coding agents are clearly having a moment. Good timing: VibeKeys Max now works with Codex too, and the same keypad already handles Claude Code and whatever you reach for next.

OpenAI just announced a coding keyboard, built with Work Louder and customized for Codex. As a team that's been shipping a keypad for AI coding for a while now, we have thoughts — and honestly, the first one is: this is good news.

Vibetty is a voice-driven terminal for AI coding agents. You speak into a VibeKeys Max keyboard's built-in microphone, the keyboard streams the audio to the Vibetty server, and your words are transcribed straight into Claude Code (or any terminal program) while the live terminal shows in your browser. Until now it ran on Linux and macOS only. As of this release, Vibetty runs on Windows 10 and 11 too.

A vibe coding keyboard is a physical keyboard, keypad, or control surface designed for AI-assisted coding workflows. Instead of treating Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, and other coding agents like normal software apps, it gives the agent loop its own dedicated controls.

The idea is simple: when a developer works with an AI coding agent such as Claude Code or Codex, a small set of actions happens again and again. Accept a change. Reject an answer. Retry a prompt. Continue a task. Compact the context. Scroll through a long diff. Toggle voice input. Switch modes. A vibe coding keyboard puts those actions under physical keys, knobs, and sometimes a status screen.

Open X on any given week in 2026 and you'll see it: another stunning render of "the vibe coding keyboard." A physical keypad with Allow Once, Always Allow, and Reject keys. A little status screen showing what your agent is doing. A YOLO button. Maybe a knob to switch models.

They're beautiful. They rack up thousands of likes. And almost every one of them is a concept render — something that looks incredible in a screenshot but that you can't actually order.

We kept seeing them, and honestly, we love them. We also kept thinking the same thing: someone should actually build this. So we did.

AI coding tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and Copilot have changed how developers work — but the interface hasn't caught up. You're still reaching for keyboard shortcuts, typing slash commands, and context-switching between your editor and terminal. VibeKeys gives you dedicated physical controls for the actions you repeat hundreds of times a day: accept, reject, retry, voice input, and more.

We make three models — Pro, Plus, and Max — each designed for a different setup and budget. This post breaks down what sets them apart so you can pick the right one.

VibeKeys Max just got a major update — three new capabilities that change how you interact with your device and with Claude Code.

Vibe coding is about staying in flow — describing what you want, letting the AI build it, and never breaking your train of thought. Voice typing takes that further: instead of typing your prompts, you just speak them. The less friction between your idea and Claude, the better the session.

Claude Code has built-in voice support. With the right key mapping on VibeKeys Pro, you can trigger it and speak hands-free — no keyboard reach required.
