Wavify: On-device Speech AI Platform
Wavify is an on-device speech AI platform that enables software engineers to embed speech recognition, wake word detection, and voice command capabilities directly into any application. It emphasizes blazing-fast performance, privacy by design, and cross-platform compatibility, allowing developers to deliver cloud-level speech features without sending user data to the cloud.
Key Features
- On-device inference for speech-to-text (STT), wake word detection, and voice commands
- SOTA-quality performance with cloud-level capabilities while keeping data on-device
- Privacy by design: user voice data never leaves the device; GDPR-friendly
- Cross-platform support: Linux, macOS, Windows, iOS, Android, Web, Raspberry Pi, and embedded systems
- Multilingual support: 20+ languages
- Lightweight runtimes suitable for edge devices (example runtimes include Whisper.cpp and Wavify’s own engine)
- Quick integration with minimal code changes
How to Use Wavify
- Choose your integration approach: pick from the provided SDKs and demos that fit your tech stack (Python, Rust, etc.).
- Initialize the SttEngine with your model path and API key (if required by your setup).
- Run STT on audio files or streams: convert speech to text locally on the device.
Example (Python):
import os
from wavify.stt import SttEngine
engine = SttEngine(
"path/to/your/model",
os.getenv("WAVIFY_API_KEY")
)
result = engine.stt_from_file("/path/to/your/file")
print(result)
- Extend with wake word and commands as needed for your product, leveraging the same on-device inference pipeline.
Supported Use Cases
