aTerminal turns your fleet of Claude Code agents into something you can listen to. Replies read aloud as you walk. A chime when an agent needs you. Your voice as the keyboard. The work gets done — you get your day back.

A day with aTerminal

The best terminal session is the one you're not sitting at.

Agents don't need you watching them work. They need you reachable for the thirty seconds that matter. Everything else is yours.

Slumped at a laptop in a dingy office under fluorescent light
3:47 PM — THE OLD WAY
Six terminals. Zero life.
Fluorescent lights. Watching cursors blink so the work doesn't stall. The agents are fine — you're the one stuck.
Grinning and pulling his headphones on as he walks out of a dim office
5:02 PM — THE HANDOFF
Headphones on. Walk out.
He queues the work, pulls his headphones on, and leaves. The fleet keeps running on his machine. It knows how to reach him.
Walking a sunny street, speaking casually to a phone held at chest height
5:20 PM — A CHIME, NOT A SCREEN
“support-bot replied.”
Siri reads it over his music, mid-stride. He answers out loud: “Now clear the support queue.” Sent. Still walking.
Laughing and dancing with friends at a night concert, arms up, fully unplugged
10:36 PM — HIS CALL
It can wait.
Front row with friends, fully unplugged. The reply can wait until morning. The agents keep working. The moment stays his.
Tremendous output. Zero desk. The world is too beautiful to spend it staring at a terminal.
I want my day back
The product

A terminal built for life.

Every feature exists to answer one question: how much of your agents' work can you follow — and direct — without looking at a screen?

Continue listening · 3
Tap any reply. Hear it.
Every message is read aloud with word-by-word karaoke highlighting, true pause and resume, adjustable speed — even your own Personal Voice.
Catch up on everything
Been away? The Continue listening pill reads every reply you haven't heard, oldest first — including one still streaming in.
Two chimes you'll know anywhere
A warm two-note rise when an agent replies. A soft double knock when one needs you. They mix over your music without stopping it.
Your voice is the keyboard
Dictate replies with on-device speech recognition. On AirPods: press to talk, double-press to send, triple-press to replay — phone locked, hands free.
A real terminal, when you want it
Flip from the readable agent view to a full PTY with tmux history, one-tap chips for continue, /status, ⌃C, and an esc/ctrl/tab key bar.
One inbox for the whole fleet
The Agent Feed collects every reply and every “needs you” across all sessions. Unheard dots show exactly what you've missed.
Announcements, not interruptions
Replies arrive as communication notifications: Siri speaks them into your AirPods over ducked music, and you answer by voice — or swipe: later.
One glance = which agent
Every session gets a deterministic signature color across the whole app. A dozen agents stop looking like a dozen identical windows.
Know your burn
A token usage dashboard self-computed from your transcripts: last 5 hours, last 7 days, burn per hour, input/output/cache breakdown.
Yours, end to end
Your machines — the apps talk straight to your Mac over SSH Your network — private Tailscale tailnet, no middleman relay Your keys — biometric-gated Ed25519 in the Keychain, host-key pinning No accounts, no backend — pushes go straight from your Mac to Apple And when it breaks — the Connection Doctor names the broken leg (“Tailscale is off”, “your Mac is asleep”) instead of “connection timeout”
Agent Cloud

Your permanent agent workshop — running while you live.

The apps are free and point at your own Mac. Agent Cloud is for when you want agents that outlive your laptop lid: a dedicated server, yours alone, with Claude Code, tmux, and your skills ready at first boot.

Your network
The server joins your own Tailscale tailnet on boot. Same apps, same workflow — your workshop is just always reachable.

Why we exist
Terminals are walls of tiny text. We built the one you can listen to.

Around one in six developers is dyslexic — and for them, a wall of monospaced output is a wall. aTerminal is accessibility-first by design: listening, speaking, and glanceable color aren't bolted on, they're the founding idea. It turns out ears beat eyes for everyone who runs more than one agent.

The Brain

A second brain for your terminal — built from pages, not markdown.

An Obsidian-style knowledge graph where every note is a real HTML page your agents can render, link, and build on. Wire it to any AI subscription you already pay for — and it syncs across every device you run.

brain.html claude.html gpt.html gemini.html codex.html ollama.html prompts.html skills.html agents.html meetings.html notes.html ideas.html designs.html transcripts.html research.html whitepapers.html books.html runbooks.html tickets.html deploys.html snippets.html podcasts.html memos.html
HTML pages, not markdown
Every note in your vault is a live page — rendered, styled, interactive. Your agents read them, link them, and build new ones.
Any AI subscription
Customize your terminal around whatever you already pay for — Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, or a local model. Swap providers per agent, per page.
Syncs across devices
Your Brain follows you — Mac at the desk, iPhone on the street, Windows or Linux anywhere else. With the Register Cloud add-on ($4.99/mo) it’s in your browser too.
