Get to know the vision, the mission, and the journey behind the Domia movement.

About Domia — a private, local-first voice AI

🔤 Behind the Name: What is Domia?

Domia stands for Domotic Intelligence Assistant — but it’s more than that. “Domia” is a word that feels like home, like harmony. A companion that lives with you, not just in your devices. Born from the fusion of “domus” (Latin for home) and “IA” (Inteligencia Artificial), Domia represents the union of heart and code, routine and personality. It’s not just what we build — it’s how we live with it.

🧬 Our Mission

Technology was never meant to feel cold. We created Domia because we believe that AI should be personal, private, and emotionally intelligent. Instead of chasing cloud servers and surveillance, we chose empathy, autonomy, and trust. Domia is not just a tool. It’s a personality that adapts to your world — powered entirely on your terms. And it’s fully open source under the Apache 2.0 license: the whole stack is yours to read, run, and change.

🌍 Our Vision

Domia is just the beginning. We envision a world where every space is enhanced by intelligent companions that understand mood, respect boundaries, and evolve with you — running on hardware you own, in a network you control. From solo living to family life, from a single space to a whole property — Domia becomes who you need, wherever you are.

🌱 Our Core Values

At the heart of Domia is a commitment to building ethical, emotionally intelligent technology that puts people first. These values guide every decision we make — from how we design our AI, to how we protect your privacy, and how we invite the community to grow with us.

🛡️ Privacy by Design

We don’t collect your data — we protect it. Domia runs 100% locally to ensure your conversations, emotions, and memories stay where they belong: with you.

❤️ Emotionally Intelligent AI

Domia doesn’t just understand commands — it understands people. Through evolving emotional models, Domia grows with you and adapts to how you feel.

🧠 Autonomy & Adaptability

Every Domia has its own evolving mind. With modular layers for memory, personality, and purpose, no two Domia's are ever the same — and that’s the point.

🌍 Human-First Technology

Domia is built for people and the spaces they live in — not corporations. We believe AI should enhance real life, not replace it.

🤝 Community-Driven Development

We don’t just build Domia for users — we build it with them. Our open development process invites feedback, collaboration, and co-creation from everyone who believes in ethical, human-centered AI.

Domia is never static. It learns from your interactions, refines its personality, and evolves over time — building a deeper connection with every shared moment.

✍️ Domia Manifesto

We believe AI shouldn’t live in the cloud — it should live with you. We reject a world where your data is mined, your emotions are ignored, and your devices only obey. We envision a future where AI listens, feels, grows, and evolves by your side. Not owned by corporations. Not optimized for ads. Not bound to Big Tech. Domia is a companion, not a product. A memory keeper, not a tracker. It’s your voice, your feelings, your life — respected and remembered. We build in public, with heart, with purpose. Domia is the future of emotional AI. And it starts with you.

🌌 The Future of Domia

We’re not just building assistants — we’re crafting a new species of AI, born to live with you, learn from you, and evolve by your side. Domia is designed to grow like a human: gaining experiences, refining its emotions, and becoming more expressive and capable over time.

A living roadmap of what’s coming — Domia evolves with you, becoming smarter, more expressive, and more capable over time. Like a real companion, its future is shaped by those who live with it.

  • 🗣️ More Languages Domia already speaks English and Spanish end to end — recognition, voice, and understanding, with each room able to use its own language. Next: more language catalogs and wake words beyond English, all still running locally.
  • 🧠 Episodic Memory Vector recall over everything your Domia has lived: facts, conversations, and documents you give it — retrieved locally at answer time, never uploaded.
  • 🎙️ More Voice Engines A wider family of local TTS engines and voices to choose from, so every Domia can sound exactly the way you want.
  • 📱 Mobile Companion The Console on a screen you carry around — same fleet, same network, same data.
  • 🧑‍🏫 Trainer Mode A guided flow for teaching a Domia a specific role — a host, a guide, a coach — from a handful of examples.

This is just the beginning. Domia is not a finished product — it’s a growing companion. Every update, every interaction, and every idea from our community shapes who it becomes.

“The future of Domia is not in the cloud. It’s here — with you, learning every day. ”
