Can I use this for my home automation setup? It seems the github link is only part of the product. Do you license this for individual users?

  This is my question too. I looked at Snips but they had no timeline on Windows support and were more interested in talking about their crypto coin than answering basic questions about their software.

    Where were you enquiring on? I've had a lot of help from their discord channel. You could give that a try.
    • ocdtrekkie 8y ago
      I was on the Discord channel. Nobody answered my question. In fact, here was my chain of asking questions on Snips: I went to the website, and had questions, so I tried to email them. I got a reply to the email telling me to join the Discord. I did, and asked in the Discord, and the only person who bothered to reply told me to read the website. ...I wouldn't have asked the questions if they were answered on the website.

    I had pretty good luck reaching out to the developers on Discord these past couple weeks. Not sure when you tried but I recommend trying it again. I personally I think snips is way more appropriate on something embedded like a RPi. I was up and running with their new sam package within minutes. Their new update (about two months?) really made it more user friendly. Unfortunately, their windows packages is still very broken. E: You should probably try in the late night or early morning time for the States (EST) since they are located in Europe I believe.

      BTW, Picovocie runs on RPi (all variant not only RPi3).

        I'm currently running snips on a RPi 2 (Model B) and it's working so far so good! Not too sure about the original Rpi though. I'm debating on getting a RPi 3 to see if the performance is better.
        • kenarsa 8y ago
          RPi3 is definitely faster. We also run on RPi 1/zero/etc.

          What sort of CPU usage do you see? Picovoice claims 25% (on RPi3).

    We do support Windows!
