Jarvis Automation

Jarvis Automation is a private, self-hosted voice assistant for your home.

Pair a Raspberry Pi Zero (or any node) once with a QR code, connect your smart devices, and Jarvis listens, responds, and runs your routines — all on hardware you own. No third-party servers, no analytics, no tracking. Your voice, your data, your house.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• Chat with Jarvis from your phone — handy when speaking out loud isn't an option. • Provision Pi Zero voice nodes in minutes with QR-code pairing and guided Wi-Fi setup. • Control lights, locks, plugs, thermostats, cameras, and speakers across Home Assistant, Hue, LIFX, Govee, Kasa, Nest, Schlage, SimpliSafe, Z-Wave, and more. • Organize devices into rooms (rooms can nest — Upstairs > Bedroom) so Jarvis picks the right device when you say "the bedroom light". • Design routines that trigger by voice or run quietly in the background, then drop alerts into your inbox. • Browse the Pantry — an open package store of voice commands, background tasks, and integrations. Install on whichever nodes you choose. • Enroll your voice profile so Jarvis recognizes which household member is speaking. • Invite family members to a shared household with admin / power-user / member roles.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

• Self-hosted by default. Voice recordings, transcripts, and commands stay on the server you run. • Per-node secrets (API keys, OAuth tokens) are encrypted with AES-256 using a key that never leaves your phone. • No analytics, advertising, crash reporting, or tracking SDKs in the app — ever. • Push notifications are optional and can be disabled for a fully on-network experience. • Open source. Inspect the code, fork it, run it yourself.

WORKS WITH

Home Assistant, Philips Hue, LIFX, Govee, TP-Link Kasa, Nest, Schlage, SimpliSafe, Z-Wave, Spotify, Pandora, Music Assistant, Google Calendar, Drive, Gmail, OpenWeather, Meteo, and more — all configurable per node.

REQUIREMENTS
