I’m developing a new AI-enabled Voice Assistant. My first prototype is an Android app that controls some home devices, and I’m now exploring next steps.
I’d love your input:
-
Would you like to test it?
-
What device would you prefer? Options could include a mobile app or a smart speaker like Amazon Echo Dot or Google Nest Mini. Right now, it’s Android-only, but I’m open to expanding based on interest.
-
Are you interested in helping with development? It’s currently a hobby project, but I’m not ruling out commercialization — and I believe in fair shares for contributors.

Why it’s different:
Traditional assistants like Alexa require exact phrasing for commands (e.g., „Alexa, turn on the bathroom ceiling light“, and „Alexa, dim the bathroom ceiling light to 40“). With AI, you can speak naturally, and it understands: „Hey, I’m in the bathroom and it’s dark in here, some light would help, but not too bright“
It can even support multilingual requests seamlessly, e.g. „Oye, estoy en el baño y está muy oscuro aquí, me vendría bien algo de luz, pero no demasiada.“
Hoping for many answers here; also let me know if you think it’s not a good idea, and why.
