SmartSub

SmartSub is a local-first cross-platform desktop application for the complete subtitle production pipeline: audio/video transcription, subtitle translation, proofreading, and subtitle burning/muxing.

It natively integrates sherpa-onnx to power three offline ASR engines — FunASR, Qwen3-ASR, and FireRedASR — delivering high-accuracy Chinese and multilingual speech recognition entirely on-device, with no file uploads required.

Fono

Talk to your computer. Fono is an open-source (GPL-3.0), complete voice-AI stack (speech-to-text, text-to-speech, a local LLM, wake word, speaker ID) in one small binary for the Linux, macOS, and Windows desktop. Press a key and speak: it types into any app, answers as a voice assistant, or drives a coding agent.

It uses sherpa-onnx's Supertonic TTS models for text-to-speech, with the Supertonic text frontend ported to Rust. See also #3750, which fixes dropped diacritics in the Supertonic frontend for Romanian, Czech, Polish, Hungarian, Turkish, Vietnamese, and other non-English Latin-script languages.

Domia

Domia is an open-source local AI companion you talk to, living entirely on hardware you own. Each Domia is its own character, with a distinct personality, voice, emotional state, and memory of you and its place — and it acts, not just talks: skills connect it to the real world over MCP, Home Assistant included. Domia nodes form a local peer-to-peer mesh that shares speech and reasoning compute, while room satellites bring each companion into the spaces where you live without giving up its identity. No cloud, no accounts, and no data leaving your network.

Domia runs sherpa-onnx in-process for keyword spotting, voice activity detection, streaming and offline speech recognition, and text-to-speech. Speech engines and models are selected through per-companion configuration, making it easy to match supported sherpa-onnx models to different hardware.

qwen-audio-agent

A realtime full-duplex voice runtime for AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, and other ACP agents). It uses sherpa-onnx keyword spotting with the 3M-parameter zh-en transducer model to implement a local voice wake word: the app sleeps on idle but keeps the microphone open, and the wake phrase brings the session back with no cloud calls.
