Making the Case for Query-by-Voice with EchoQuery

Summary: Introduces Query-by-Voice (QbV) and EchoQuery, a proof-of-concept voice interface for relational DBMSs with casual, conversational querying. Demonstrates advantages over text/visual interfaces when context switching is costly and for accessibility, enabling data querying via speech. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
