FAQs

What is the relationship between Open Voice OS and Mycroft?

Open Voice OS started as MycroftOS and evolved independently. While initially wrapping Mycroft-core, Open Voice OS-core was created for enhanced functionality. It maintains compatibility with Mycroft components and submits changes upstream, often considered an "unsanctioned Mycroft Community Edition" due to its independent development and feature set.

Does Open Voice OS work offline?

By default, ovos-core does not require an internet server. Some skills can be accessed offline. While the default speech-to-text (STT) engine needs internet, self-hosted offline options like Vosk or Mozilla DeepSpeech are available. Individual skills and plugins may still require internet for a full experience.

What hardware does Open Voice OS support?

Open Voice OS supports a variety of hardware platforms, including Raspberry Pi models (3B, 3B+, 4, Zero 2), Mark I and Mark II devices, Linux desktops and laptops, and Docker containers. Pre-built images are available for Raspberry Pi and Mark II devices, catering to embedded and low-spec systems.
