See https://talonvoice.com for an extensible open source alternative to voice code.

The creator/main developer is a friend of mine and is one of the smartest people I know. The project can be used to control IDA for reverse engineering, play video games, program, and more.

Thanks for the plug! Couple notes: Talon is free, but there are closed source bits, and this Alexa project is "voice coder", which is different than the paid and abandoned voicecode project.

The difference between this and Talon, is Talon can be used for real programming and uses very low latency offline recognition, while voice coder looks like a guided tutorial and the user experience is probably a fairly high latency single command call/response based on my previous Alexa experience. I'm not sure Alexa can recognize a streaming series of commands without large recognition pauses between each command.

Talon seems impressive.

How is its accuracy for daily use? How about random navigation within a file, for example.

Does it have an active community?

Correct. Voice Coder is a guided tutorial for beginners, not a replacement for developing production code. It does allow for multi step answers, but is a high latency back and forth dialog with a smaller set of commands. The goal is to be extremely human friendly, not productive, to better understand the basics of coding.
