Mycroft

Mycroft is a free and open-source intelligent personal assistant and knowledge navigator for Linux-based operating systems that uses a natural language user interface.

Mycroft is like Google Assistant, Alexa, Cortana; but open source, in Python, with user-customizable 'skills' (voice commands)

Mycroft uses SpeechRecognition for speech recognition:

SpeechRecognition:

• Src: https://github.com/Uberi/speech_recognition
• PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/SpeechRecognition/

Library for performing speech recognition, with support for several engines and APIs, online and offline.

IDK what the error/accuracy rate is; so YMMV.
