The Ulanzi AU05 VibeKey AI Voice Input Keypad is a bit of an unusual product. It is being touted as a compact AI workflow controller for photo and video creators.

Ulanazi recommends it for use with mainstream AI voice-input software. It is also compatible with AI agents such as ChatGPT, Claude, and Codex, plus compatible voice-input tools such as Typeless.


It features 3 customizable keys, a smart control knob, and a built-in microphone. The whole concept behind it was to come up with a device that lets you talk to AI, trigger creative shortcuts, and speed up everything from shoot planning to captions and editing notes.

You press and hold the Voice Key for voice input, and then the microphone captures your command so you can prompt AI while coding, writing, or creating.


The device allows you to remap each key using Ulanzi Studio so it is easy to recall your most-used commands.
It features a 300mAh, 3.7V, 1.1Wh battery that charges through USB-C and takes approximately 4 hours to charge. In Work Mode, battery life is claimed to reach up to 5 days based on 3 hours of continuous use per day
