A brand new and exciting menu item can be found in your {% my config title="**Settings**" %}
|
||||
menu: {% my voice_assistants title="**Voice assistants**" %}!
|
||||
|
||||
This currently supports our [Assist](/docs/assist), Amazon Alexa and
|
||||
Google Assistant. For the latter two, it is curently limited to
|
||||
the ones set up via Home Assistant Cloud.

||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Local TTS/SST options
|
||||
This new settings item gives you access to many fantastic new voice features;
|
||||
it also provides a new **Expose** tab where you can manage which entities are
|
||||
exposed to your Assist, Alexa, and Google Assistant.
|
||||
|
||||
A new integration [Wyoming](/integrations/wyoming) provides a way
|
||||
for Home Assistant to integrate with voice Text-to-speech and
|
||||
Speech-to-text services that use the Wyoming protocol.
|
||||
<img class="no-shadow" src='/images/blog/2023-05/voice-assistants-expose-entities.png' alt='Screenshot showing the new expose entities tab in the voice assistants menu.'>
|
||||
|
||||
This release introduces two new add-ons that support this and thus provide
|
||||
a fully local option (that can be used on, for example, a Raspberry Pi 4).
|
||||
It gives an overview of what entities you have exposed to your voice assistants
|
||||
and easily remove or add new ones. Clicking on an entity in this screen will
|
||||
bring up the voice assistant setting for that entity, allowing you to turn
|
||||
on/off the entity's exposure to a specific voice assistant and
|
||||
manage the entity's aliases.
|
||||
|
||||
- Speech-to-text using [OpenAI Whisper](https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/supervisor_addon/?addon=whisper).
|
||||
- Text-to-speech using [Piper](https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/supervisor_addon/?addon=core_piper).
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Piper is really amazing, it is small, sounds reasonably good and
|
||||
above all is fully local. [Checkout out some output examples here](https://rhasspy.github.io/piper-samples/).
|
||||
This currently supports our [Assist](/docs/assist), and Amazon Alexa and
|
||||
Google Assistant via Home Assistant Cloud.
