    hardware is more generally available.

    Yup, that is the one missing piece.

    I have been using the new piper/wyoming stuff, and it actually works extremely nicely. I am very impressed with it.

      I’ve tried that, but I couldn’t get it to work with the Android app as my instance is on HTTP as it’s internal only. Think they solved that. Also, I’m running the docker version, so can’t install add-ons.

      But, without Home Assistant Cloud, and without 3d printing / custom printing, the only hardware available for voice assist is the mobile app, right? I have a Chromecast with remote, so could use Google Assistant, but I believe that requires HA Cloud.

      /edit: just found this doc about GA + HA, it either requires HA Cloud, OR a publicly accessible HA instance with SSL. I have neither :D Will look into HA CLoud.

        Yes the latest July release allows for voice assist over HTTP and internal access.

        And HA blog has a post with a $13 mic which I bought and works but it needs to be plugged in and press a button to activate so rather limiting.
