wyoming-alkove (preview)

A Wyoming wake word server for Home Assistant with Alkove's Spot: any word you type is a wake word, in French, English, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Catalan or Romanian, with no training and no recording. It takes the place of the openWakeWord add-on for a satellite (a Raspberry Pi with a microphone, Wyoming Satellite), and runs on its CPU.

Maintained by Alkove.

Run

pip install wyoming-alkove
wyoming-alkove --uri tcp://0.0.0.0:10400 --word "ok nabu" --word "fr:salut maison" --zeroconf

The models (Spot 2.8 MB, Lex 1.8 MB) are downloaded once from Hugging Face and checked by their sha256; --models-dir reads them from a folder. Then add the Wyoming integration in Home Assistant (found by --zeroconf, or by host and port) and pick the word in the satellite's settings, or as the wake word engine of an Assist pipeline. Tried with Home Assistant 2026.10.

  • --word "text" (repeatable): a word in --lang (default en); "fr:text" for another language. Lex compiles it when the server starts. Its id for Wyoming is the text in lower case with underscores: ok_nabu.
  • --any-word: a name a client asks for that no --word gave is compiled on demand, in --lang.
  • --context: pause (default, the word said after a pause: far fewer false alarms), anywhere or both.
  • --threshold-pause, --threshold-anywhere: every word's threshold, instead of Spot's default for its language.

Test

pytest tests (silence gives not-detected); with ALKOVE_SCENE=a.wav (16 kHz mono, saying the word) and ALKOVE_WORD, ALKOVE_EXPECT, a run on real speech.
