One Device. Two Ways to Code.

Switch seamlessly between a traditional desktop setup and AI-powered remote control.

⌨️

Keyboard Mode

Use VibeKeys Max at your desk as a dedicated keyboard interface for vibe coding.

Trigger common actions like Accept, Retry, YOLO, ESC, or Voice with dedicated keys instead of typing commands.

At Your Desk: A physical interface for AI coding workflows.

🎮

Claude Code Remote Mode

Use VibeKeys Max as a remote voice interface for Claude Code.

The built-in microphone lets you trigger voice input and interact with AI coding tools from anywhere in the room.

Coding doesn't always happen at your desk.

From Anywhere: Keep the workflow going with voice.
