FAQ
<details open><summary>Question: What is the Ulanzi AU05 Vibe Key used for?</summary><div>Answer: The <b>Ulanzi AU05 Vibe Key, SKU I018</b>, is an AI voice input keypad for people who work with AI agents, coding tools, writing apps, meetings, and desktop workflows. It combines a microphone, physical keys, a multifunction knob, shortcut mapping, status lighting, and a compact magnetic body so you can press, speak, confirm, reject, scroll, or trigger commands without constantly switching between keyboard and mouse.</div></details>

<details open><summary>Question: Does Vibe Key have built-in AI voice recognition?</summary><div>Answer: Vibe Key is best understood as a <b>hardware voice-input and shortcut controller</b>, not a standalone AI assistant. Voice input is typically used with compatible voice-input software or shortcuts, such as Typeless or other apps that support shortcut activation. Press the voice key, speak, and your words can be sent to the active input field or AI workflow depending on your software setup.</div></details>

<details open><summary>Question: Which apps and AI tools can Vibe Key work with?</summary><div>Answer: Vibe Key is designed for mainstream AI workflows such as <b>ChatGPT, Claude, Codex, AI coding tools, writing tools, and productivity software</b>. In Ulanzi Studio, you can map keys and knob actions to shortcuts such as voice input, confirm, reject, new session, open sidebar, scroll, zoom, or switch sessions. Actual behavior depends on the app, operating system permissions, and the shortcuts you configure.</div></details>

<details open><summary>Question: What computer system requirements should I check?</summary><div>Answer: Vibe Key is made for computer workflows and is configured through <b>Ulanzi Studio V3.2.0 or later</b>. System support includes <b>Windows 10 or later</b>, <b>macOS 12.0 or later on Apple Silicon Macs</b>, and <b>macOS 12.0 or later on Intel Macs</b>. It connects by USB dongle receiver, and first-time setup should include checking microphone permissions so voice input works correctly.</div></details>

<details open><summary>Question: Can Vibe Key work after Ulanzi Studio is closed?</summary><div>Answer: Yes, but with limits. After Vibe Key has connected to Ulanzi Studio and a preset has been successfully synchronized, <b>offline mode</b> can keep shortcut functions running for the knob and keys. Offline mode focuses on saved shortcuts; voice input features may still require the relevant voice-input app, microphone permission, and active software workflow on your computer.</div></details>

<details open><summary>Question: What do the lights, keys, and knob do?</summary><div>Answer: Vibe Key has physical controls for high-frequency AI actions: voice input, confirm, reject, custom shortcuts, and a knob that can be mapped for scrolling, zooming, switching conversations, or other commands. It also includes three lighting modes: <b>Work Mode, All-On Mode, and Power-Saving Mode</b>. With supported Codex or Claude Code hooks, the lighting can show AI task status, approvals, or when human attention is needed.</div></details>

<details open><summary>Question: Is Vibe Key portable, and how is it powered?</summary><div>Answer: Yes. Vibe Key has a CNC aluminum body, weighs about <b>84 g / 2.96 oz</b>, and measures about <b>11.2 x 3 x 2.8 cm / 4.41 x 1.18 x 1.10 in</b>. It has a <b>300mAh, 3.7V, 1.1Wh battery</b>, charges through USB-C, and takes approximately <b>4 hours</b> to charge. In Work Mode, battery life can reach up to <b>5 days</b> based on 3 hours of continuous use per day under Ulanzi test conditions.</div></details>

<details open><summary>Question: What is included, and should I choose the stand kit?</summary><div>Answer: The <b>Only Vibe Key</b> option includes Vibe Key with lanyard, USB dongle receiver, USB-C charging cable, and user manual. The <b>Vibe Key + Silver Stand</b> kit adds a stand for a cleaner desk setup. Choose the stand kit if you want Vibe Key fixed beside a laptop, monitor, or desktop workstation; choose the standard kit if you mainly want a portable keypad for handheld or bag-carry use.</div></details>
