Comment: Reference 1 is not independent of the subject, Reference 2 is unreliable because Medium is user-generated, and References 3-5 are stores that sell thousands of apps, using those sources to establish notability would eventually make Wikipedia an indiscriminate collection of information.Please remove the bolding throughout the draft, we only bold at the first mention of the subject or an alternate/former name. 🌀Hurricane Wind and Fire (talk) (contribs)🔥 20:08, 18 February 2026 (UTC)

Voxt (formerly Actual Chat) is an open-source messaging application developed by Actual Chat, Inc. that combines real-time voice communication with automatic live transcription.[1] The application allows users to speak instead of typing, with their speech converted to text in real time, enabling recipients to either listen to the audio or read the transcript.[2] Voxt is available on the web, Android, iOS, and Windows.[3][4][5]
Overview
Voxt positions itself as a voice-first messenger that bridges the gap between text messaging and voice calls. The application's core premise is that speaking is approximately five times faster than typing, but traditional voice messages create an inconvenience for recipients who may not be in a position to listen. By automatically transcribing voice in real time, Voxt allows senders to communicate by voice while recipients can choose to read the text or play back the audio at their convenience.
Unlike social media platforms, Voxt does not feature public feeds, follower systems, or algorithmic content recommendations. The application is designed for private communication between known contacts.
Features
Voice and transcription
Voxt streams audio in real time using the Opus codec and transcribes speech as it is spoken. The live transcription appears to other participants while the speaker is still talking, similar to live captions. Multiple transcription engines are supported, including Deepgram, Google Cloud Speech-to-Text, and OpenAI's transcription models. The application also supports on-device transcription using NVIDIA's Parakeet TDT model via the ONNX Runtime, which processes speech locally without sending audio to cloud services.
Audio messages can be replayed after the fact, and the text transcript remains searchable.
AI features
Voxt integrates artificial intelligence capabilities powered by OpenAI models:
- Conversation summaries — Automatic AI-generated summaries of conversations, allowing users to catch up on missed discussions.
- Live translation — Real-time translation of messages with automatic language detection.
- Semantic search — An AI-powered search system that uses machine learning embeddings via OpenSearch to find messages by meaning rather than exact keywords.
- In-chat AI assistant — A built-in chatbot that can answer questions within conversations.
Communication modes
The application supports peer-to-peer private chats, group chats, and "Places" — workspace-style containers that can hold multiple chat rooms, similar in concept to Discord servers or Slack workspaces. Message threading, emoji reactions, file attachments (up to 500 MB), and message forwarding are also supported.
Privacy and security
Voxt is designed with an end-to-end encryption architecture using AES-256-GCM with ECDH P-256 key agreement and HKDF-SHA-256 key derivation. The application uses WebRTC audio processing for noise cancellation and echo suppression, and supports on-device voice activity detection using ONNX models.
Technology
Voxt is built on the .NET platform using C#. The web interface uses Blazor (a combination of server-side and WebAssembly rendering), while mobile and desktop applications are built with .NET MAUI sharing a Blazor WebView. The frontend also uses TypeScript and Tailwind CSS.
The backend uses PostgreSQL as its primary database, Redis for caching, and NATS for message brokering. Real-time state synchronization is handled by ActualLab.Fusion, an open-source framework developed by the same team that provides automatic computed-state invalidation and push updates. Communication between client and server uses SignalR WebSockets with MessagePack serialization.
In production, the application runs on Google Cloud Platform using Kubernetes, with AlloyDB (a PostgreSQL-compatible managed database) as the primary data store.
History
Voxt was founded in 2022 by Alex Yakunin and Alexey Kochetov as Actual Chat, incorporated as a Delaware corporation based in Laguna Niguel, California. The product was rebranded to Voxt with the domain voxt.ai, though the legal entity remains Actual Chat, Inc. The source code is publicly available on GitHub under the GNU Affero General Public License v3 (AGPLv3).
