OVOS Friends

OpenVoiceOS is part of a larger ecosystem of FOSS voice technology, we work closely with the following projects

HiveMind

HiveMind is a community-developed superset or extension of OpenVoiceOS

With HiveMind, you can extend one (or more, but usually just one!) instance of Mycroft to as many devices as you want, including devices that can't ordinarily run Mycroft!

HiveMind's developers have successfully connected to Mycroft from a PinePhone, a 2009 MacBook, and a Raspberry Pi 0, among other devices. Mycroft itself usually runs on our desktop computers or our home servers, but you can use any Mycroft-branded device, or OpenVoiceOS, as your central unit.

Plasma Bigscreen

NeonGecko

Neon was one of the first projects ever to adopt ovos-core as a library to build their own voice assistant, Neon works closely together with OVOS and both projects are mostly compatible

Mycroft

Mycroft AI started it all, it was one of the first ever FOSS voice assistants and is the project OVOS descends from.

Most applications made for mycroft will work in OVOS and vice-versa

Secret Sauce AI

Secret Sauce AI is a coordinated community of tech minded AI enthusiasts working together on projects to identify blockers and improve the basic open source tools and pipeline components in the AI (voice) assistant pipeline (wakeword, ASR, NLU, NLG, TTS). The focus is mostly geared toward deployment on edge devices and self-hosted solutions. This is not a voice assistant project in and of itself, rather Secret Sauce AI helps AI (voice) assistant projects come together as individuals and solve basic problems faced by the entire community.
