Use cases

A voice agent wherever people talk

Typical requests from three kinds of places, what Domia does with each one, and what you set up.

Four routes a request can take

  • Fast path

    A known command calls the skill directly, without the model.

  • The model decides

    For anything else the model sees the skills that fit and chooses: call one, or just answer.

  • From your notes

    The matching entries of the knowledge base reach the model before it answers.

  • From memory

    Facts you told it come back when they are relevant.

How a request finds its route

At home

A day at home with Domia, from a chat over coffee to good night.

What you need: one capable machine with a microphone and a speaker. Lights need Home Assistant, music needs Music Assistant, and more rooms need satellites. Conversation, memory, timers, alarms and reminders need nothing else.

Typical requests

  • “How was your day?”

    Route:The model decides

    No command here, so the model just answers, in the character and voice you gave it. Talk over it and it stops to listen, and after a reply the microphone stays open for your next sentence.

  • “How do I take my coffee?”

    Route:From memory

    You said it once, or asked it to remember. Facts about you stay on your node, and you can read and delete them in the console.

  • “Turn off the kitchen light.”

    Route:Fast path

    A known command: it goes straight to Home Assistant without waiting for the model.

  • “Play some jazz in the living room.”

    Route:The model decides

    Not a fixed phrase, so the model picks the Music Assistant skill and fills in what to play and where. Pause, skip and volume are known commands and skip the model.

  • “Remind me to take my pills at nine.”

    Route:The model decides

    Free words and a time, so the model fills in the reminder and the built-in skill stores it. It is spoken aloud at nine. Timers and alarms are built in too, as known commands.

  • “Good night.”

    Route:Fast path

    A routine you define in the console: lights off, music off, alarm set. Its phrase becomes a known command; it runs the steps in order and answers once.

Hospitality

Hotel rooms, rentals, a lodge: you write what guests usually ask and each room answers by voice, only from what you wrote, with the name, voice and temperament you chose for that place. Below, a real example you can watch and hear.

Typical requests

  • “What's the wifi password?”

    Route:From your notes

    You write the wifi, the house rules and the check-out time once. Every guest gets the answer by voice, and nothing leaves the property.

  • “Can we use the pool after ten?”

    Route:From your notes

    House rules, quiet hours and check-out are notes you wrote. The room answers from them, in the tone you chose for the place.

  • “What time is breakfast?”

    Route:From your notes

    Meal times and opening hours are notes. Change one in the console and the room answers with the new time.

  • “Any good places to eat nearby?”

    Route:From your notes

    It recommends the places you wrote down, in your own words. It does not search the web.

  • “Turn on the reading light.”

    Route:Fast path

    With Home Assistant in the property it is a known command: the reading light turns on without waiting for the model.

  • “Wake us up at seven.”

    Route:Fast path

    A known command, so the built-in alarm is set without the model and rings in that room. There is nothing to connect.

Guests just ask

Guests arrive at a rental and ask the place about the rules, the wifi, the lights and where to park. It answers from the notes the host wrote. Nobody installs anything.

Hear it answer

Real turns from the demo setup. Press play: you hear the question, the wait and the reply.

Attractions and guides

A character at a theme park, a guide in a park or a museum, a booth at a fair. One Domia per spot, in character, with its own voice and its own notes. Visitors just talk to it.

Typical requests

  • “Nova, do dragons really breathe fire?”

    Route:The model decides

    No command here, so the model answers as the character you wrote: its name, its voice, its way of speaking. Children can talk to it like a friend, at a booth or in a queue.

  • “Tell me about this place.”

    Route:The model decides

    The model tells it in character, from the notes you wrote about the spot: what it is, when it was built, what to look for.

  • “When is the next show?”

    Route:From your notes

    Show times, opening hours and where things are come from the notes you wrote for that spot. It answers only what is there.

  • “Where are the restrooms?”

    Route:From your notes

    Each spot knows its own surroundings because you wrote them down for it: the nearest exit, the café, the next stop on the route.

  • “Who painted this one?”

    Route:From your notes

    A Domia per room or per piece, with the notes you wrote about it. Visitors ask in their own words; the model answers from those notes.

  • “Do you remember my name?”

    Route:From memory

    What a visitor tells it stays with that Domia, so it can greet them by name later. For public spots you can switch memory off: it stops learning about visitors, and the turn log stays on the device for a limited time, where you can erase it.

What you set up

  1. Write the notes

    In the console, add short entries: wifi, rules, opening hours, meal or show times, phone numbers, your local picks.

    See the console
  2. Run one hub

    A hub-class machine on site does the listening, the thinking and the speaking for every spot.

  3. Give each spot a Domia

    A satellite in the room or booth and its own Domia, with a name, a voice and its own notes.

Also, in any place

  • Several Domias can live on one machine, each with its own name, voice and memory.
  • From the console's Broadcast page you can send an announcement to every room, or open an intercom between two.
  • A Domia can move to another machine with everything it knows.

Try it in your own place

Install it once, apply a template from the console and say the wake word.
