Abot is an open-source Go framework for building digital assistants similar to Siri, Cortana, or Alexa, with an extensible plugin system and optional human-aided training backend. It scaffolds projects backed by PostgreSQL and serves a local console and web interface for interacting with the assistant.

Use cases

• build my own siri-like digital assistant
• create a chatbot framework in go
• build an alexa-style assistant that runs locally
• add plugin skills to a conversational assistant
• build a human-in-the-loop assistant service like facebook m
• self-host a personal assistant server

When to choose

• you want an extensible, self-hosted assistant framework in Go
• you need a plugin architecture for adding assistant skills
• you want to experiment with human-aided training backends

When to avoid

• you need a maintained project - it is explicitly no longer supported
• you want modern LLM-based assistants or RAG capabilities
• you need production-grade NLU out of the box
