Spoken answers
When Speechy's notch assistant answers on your Mac, it also says one short line out loud, like "Found it, your invoice went out yesterday." Pick the voice, volume and playback speed in Settings, Audio, Voiceover, or turn off Speak answers. It stops the moment you talk, ask again or close the notch.
