Ask HN: Offline, Embeddable Speech Recognition?

4 points by yazzku ↗ HN
I am in shop for a speech recon library that works offline and can fit on a phone (Android).

I used to use Snips AI (https://snips.ai/), which worked well until it was acquired by Sonos. Now the portal is down and I can't modify the model anymore.

Looking for something ideally written in C or that can target C for portability. Free/libre and copyleft preferable to avoid the acquisition trap again.

Tapping into the vast pools of knowledge of HN; could you please suggest alternatives, preferably ones you have experience with?

Thank you.

I was going to give CMUSphinx / PocketSphinx a try, based on maturity and requirements.

If anyone has used it in the past or can suggest other options that will be appreciated.
