Frequently asked questions

Do I need ML expertise to create voice commands?

Not at all. Picovoice Console provides a user-friendly browser interface that lets you define wake words and intents using plain language. You can test everything directly in-browser and export ready-to-deploy models—no machine learning experience, coding, or training pipelines required. It's built to empower developers and product teams of all technical levels.

Is this usable on microcontrollers or low-power devices?

Yes. Picovoice engines like Porcupine (wake word) and Rhino (intent recognition) are highly optimized to run on resource-constrained environments. They support MCUs such as ARM Cortex-M with minimal memory and CPU requirements, enabling advanced voice control on devices with strict power or space limitations.

Will it work without internet?

Yes. All Picovoice engines run fully on-device during operation—no cloud is required to detect, understand, or act on voice commands. Internet is only required for licensing and usage tracking.

Can I deploy on multiple platforms?

Yes. Picovoice supports a broad range of platforms, including mobile (iOS/Android), web, desktop (Windows/macOS/Linux), embedded Linux, and microcontroller-based systems. This cross-platform flexibility makes it easy to integrate voice command functionality across your entire product ecosystem.

Is voice data private and compliant?

Yes. All speech recognition and intent processing occur locally on-device during runtime. Voice data is not transmitted externally, supporting compliance with GDPR, HIPAA, and other privacy regulations.
