Do you use a voice assistant that really respects your privacy? It’s time to switch to Parula.
Parula runs on your own device. Whether it’s your voice, your calendar, locations, messages, or personal preferences: Parula keeps it under your own control.
Your conversations are safe and secure. Parula is there to help you, not to spy on you. Parula is the voice assistant that puts your privacy first.
If your hands are covered in flour from baking a cake, you can set a timer, and play your favorite music.
When you whisper ‘Parula, Good night!', it can turn off the lights and your TV, put your phone on silent mode, and activate your alarm system.
Using the latest technology of a ‘large language model’, you will be able to speak naturally in your own words. You won’t need to know or remember the specific phrase that the voice assistant understands.
Parula has many highly useful built-in apps, but it can also command your smart phone applications or services on the Internet. Parula is the central switchboard for all your applications, services and devices that you use.
This demo works without Internet or any cloud services.
Parula apps are fully interactive. Click on the timer, and Parula will tell you when the apples are cooked.

Parula is available to everybody as Open Source. You can contribute to it and improve it.
Open Source keeps us honest: Verify how it works and that our claims here are true.
As developer, you are invited to add connections to third party applications, services, and devices. Join and add support for your favorite service!
For people with disabilities, elderly people or those who cannot read, a voice assistant which understands natural language can be a game-changer. Parula can be adapted to specific needs, without being dependent on a large company.
If you are as excited about this vision as we are, and you are a developer, please help us! There’s a TODO list on the developer site.
