What is Rhasspy?
Rhasspy (pronounced RAH-SPEE) is an offline, multi-language voice assistant toolkit inspired by Jasper that works well with Home Assistant, Hass.io, and Node-RED.
Rhasspy transforms voice commands into JSON events that can trigger actions in home automation software, like Home Assistant automations or Node-RED flows. You define custom voice commands in a profile using a specialized template syntax, and Rhasspy takes care of the rest.
Comments and Reviews
The only complete-package voice assistant I know that works fully offline; leverages the best of FOSS voice processing projects and exposes them using a simple API.
It takes some DIY to set up and tech to do things, and it's lacking any form of "voice skills" (voice commands and handlers), but if that's the price for not having your voice sent to random people's computers, I'm happy to pay it.
Bonus: actually works well for the Russian language! Snowboy+Kaldi+Larynx are very usable.
Changed from Mycroft to Rhasspy, much more flexible and modular. Got it to work in a couple of hours too.
