## What it is
Rhasspy is a fully offline, privacy-focused set of voice assistant services supporting many human languages. It converts spoken voice commands into JSON intent events that can trigger actions in home automation platforms like Home Assistant, Node-RED, and Jeedom.

## Use cases
- run a private voice assistant without cloud services
- control Home Assistant with voice commands offline
- trigger Node-RED flows by speaking
- recognize custom voice commands in multiple languages
- build an offline wake-word and speech-to-text pipeline
- integrate voice intents over MQTT or HTTP

## When to choose
- you need a fully offline, privacy-respecting voice assistant
- you use Home Assistant, Node-RED, or other open home automation platforms
- you want pre-defined grammar-based voice commands in many languages
- you want to self-host on a Raspberry Pi or local server

## When to avoid
- you need open-ended conversational AI or LLM-style dialogue
- you want a polished commercial assistant like Alexa or Google Assistant
- you need cloud-scale speech recognition accuracy
- you prefer a managed hosted service with no setup
