Origin Story

We lovingly crafted Makeskill Design Kit in-house to streamline highly customizable voice experiments. Makeskill has been used in lab studies, prototyping workshops, user nights, and hackathons to equip product teams and to teach folks who are still new to designing for voice interfaces.

Ultimately, we believe this kit can help you and spur creativity and productivity for your voice ideas end-to-end.
