Home Intent: https://homeintent.io/

It's a standalone application that integrates with Home Assistant and provides an OOTB voice assistant for your entities.

I'm not actually sure how I would monetize it. I mostly saw all the pieces for it were open and had good APIs and built it mostly for myself. Eventually I realized others could use it and put it out there. I've never put in much effort to advertise it, but got a bit of a following.

Luckily now with the Home Assistant "year of voice" a lot of the ideas are going to be integrated into Home Assistant directly and I'd like to think I helped influence it a bit. (https://community.rhasspy.org/t/2023-year-of-voice/4130)

It's nice to have my ideas out there and let others (far more capable) continue on. Feels like the true nature of open source
