It's indeed suspicious. You're sending your voice samples, your various services accounts, your location and more private data to some proprietary black box in some public cloud. Sorry, but this is a privacy nightmare. It should be open source and self-hosted like Mycroft (https://mycroft.ai) or Leon (https://getleon.ai) to be trustworthy. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

I was expecting this to be about Mycroft the AI assistant ( https://mycroft.ai/ ). - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

But I would recommend writing some proper glue logic in Python and use the socket function for communication. But if you really want to get rid of Alexa, it's probably worth it to set up mycroft.ai or another open source assistant. Source: about 1 year ago

You may want to give https://serenade.ai a try, they have browser support (might be chrome only? Not sure), it's good enough,. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

These suggestions have helped me. I would add the app serenade.ai. It's made for developers to code with voice commands, but you can also use it to control the browser and do everyday computer tasks by voice. Source: 12 months ago

I highly recommend this https://serenade.ai/. Source: about 1 year ago

There’s this tool called Serenade (https://serenade.ai) and it’s free, hope it can help you! Source: about 1 year ago

I have nerve & muscle damage in my hands so I use both keyguards and Serenade (open-source voice control). They are definitely a game changer and are the only things making programming possible for me! Source: over 1 year ago
