Hey Buddy! is a library for training wake word models (a.k.a audio keyword spotters) and deploying them to the browser for real-time use on CPU or GPU.
Using a wake-word as a gating mechanism for voice-enabled web applications carries numerous benefits, including reduced power consumption, improved privacy, and enhanced performance in noisy environments over speech-to-text systems.
Designed for usability and flexibility, Hey Buddy! features the following:
- Available with a simple
pip install heybuddy - Use a single command to train a model, no downloads or data gathering required
- Models are resilient to noisy environments and hurried speech
- Verified for commercial use - uses open data and libraries with commercially-viable licenses (see below for specifics)
- Process an arbitrary number of Wake Word models at once, with plenty of frame budget left over
- Voice-command-oriented JavaScript module provides a recording of the audio from the beginning of the wake word to the end of speech, ready to be dispatched for downstream processing
- Callback interface for more advanced integrations
A live demo space is available here. As this runs entirely on-device, this will not consume any HuggingFace credits.
The Python library only works on Linux at the moment, due to piper-phonemize only working on Linux.
The easiest way to install and use Hey Buddy is with Anaconda/Miniconda and the maintained environment file like so:
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/painebenjamin/hey-buddy/refs/heads/main/environment.yml
conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate heybuddy
pip install heybuddy[gpu]
If you already have a working CUDA environment, you can just skip to pip install heybuddy. You will need to install piper-phonemize separately in this case, see the rhasspy/piper-phonemizer releases page on GitHub to find the latest wheel for your python version - for example, the environment file uses python 3.10, so it installs https://github.com/rhasspy/piper-phonemize/releases/download/v1.1.0/piper_phonemize-1.1.0-cp310-cp310-manylinux_2_28_x86_64.whl.
Training a model is as simple as executing heybuddy train:
heybuddy train "hello world"This will:
- Generate 100,000 training speech samples of the wake phrase using Piper TTS
- Generate 100,000 adversarial training speech samples of phonetically-similar phrases using Piper TTS
- Augment the wake word text with common follow-up words for conversational or command-oriented speech
- Augment generated speech samples using sound effects and music in varying ratios of signal-to-noise
- Reverberate these speech samples using varying impule responses (IRs)
- Undergo any combination of additional distortions including white noise, pitch shifting, and more.
- Extract speech embeddings from both sets of samples, storing as memory-mapped
numpyarrays for quick access during training - Repeat the above process is repeated to generate testing samples and validation* samples
- Download the precalculated training and validation datasets if not already downloaded
- Train the model in an automated fashion in three stages
- Save the model's checkpoint for conversion to ONNX or resuming training at a later time.
* Validation is slightly different from testing in that the positive samples are not augmented with noise, and thus serve as a 'best-case' speech validation that should be close to 100% accurate. Validation, additionally, does not include adversarial samples.
Finally, a convenient script is available for converting the .pt checkpoint to a .onnx model for the web:
heybuddy convert checkpoints/hello_world_final.ptYou can now serve this model on the web. See the JavaScript API documentation below.
Training and validation datasets are automatically downloaded when using the command-line interface with default options. See here for more information about these datasets and how you can make your own.
If you have space limitations, reference the table below for command-line flags that can help reduce size.
| Flag | Size | Default |
|---|---|---|
--training-full-default-dataset |
72 GB | Yes |
--training-large-default-dataset |
46 GB | No |
--training-medium-default-dataset |
25 GB | No |
--training-no-default-dataset |
0 | No |
Note when using no default dataset, you will need to provide your own dataset with --training-dataset <path>. See the link above for how to create your own.
These are the default augmentation datasets. These were selected for their commercial availability and lack of copyleft restrictions so your trained wake-word models are your own. If you substitute another dataset, make sure you have the required license to use that data for AI training.

When using the command-line, pass --augmentation-dataset-streaming to stream datasets instead of downloading them. This is not recommended for performance.
To disable using these datasets, pass --augmentation-no-default-background-dataset and --augmentation-no-default-impulse-dataset. You should pass your own datasets in the format <username>/<repo>, for loading via load_dataset

Hey Buddy! is distributed as two JavaScript files that should be made available through any implementing web application:
hey-buddy.min.js(90 kB) which provides the HeyBuddy API, andhey-buddy-worklet.js(1 kB) which implements the Audio Worklet interface which will be imported by the browser automatically.
You need to make the ONNX runtime available prior to importing the HeyBuddy JS API. The easiest way to do this is to use a JS CDN, like so:
<!-- ONNX Runtime -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/onnxruntime-web@1.19.0/dist/ort.min.js"></script>
<!-- Hey Buddy API -->
<script src="/path/to/my/website/hey-buddy.min.js"></script>
<!-- Your Code -->
<script>...</script>You will also need to host the onnx file created by heybuddy convert (see above.)
Your implementation code could look something like this:
const options = {
record: true, // disable when not needed to save memory
modelPath: ["/models/my-model.onnx", "/models/my-other-model.onnx"], // Also accepts single strings
// workletUrl: /path/to/my/website/hey-buddy-worklet.js // Only needed if not at the same path as the library code
};
const heyBuddy = new HeyBuddy(options);
// do something with a recording
heyBuddy.onRecording(async (audio) => {
// audio is a Float32Array of samples
});
// do something every frame
heyBuddy.onProcessed((result) => {
/**
* this is triggered every frame with:
* {
* listening: bool,
* recording: bool,
* speech: {
* probability: 0.0 <= float <= 1.0,
* active: bool
* },
* wakeWords: {
* $modelNameWithoutExtension: {
* probability: 0.0 <= float <= 1.0,
* active: bool
* }
* }
* }
*/
});To use the torch model directly, you can do the following.
from heybuddy import WakeWord
audio = "/path/to/audio.wav" # OR flac OR mp3 OR numpy array/tensor (int16 or float32) OR list of the same
model = WakeWord.from_file("/path/to/model.pt")
model.to("cuda") # optional
predictions = model.predict(
audio,
threshold=0.5, # you can experiment with different thresholds
return_scores=False, # when true, return the prediction scores instead of bools. default false.
)
first_audio_has_wakeword = predictions[0] # bool by defaultA threaded API is also available for ease-of-use and to minimize performance impact.
from heybuddy import WakeWordModelThread
audio = "/path/to/audio.wav" # OR flac OR mp3 OR numpy array/tensor (int16 or float32) OR list of the same
thread = WakeWordModelThread(
"/path/to/model.pt", # or onnx
device_id=None, # set to GPU index to use CUDA for torch or onnx, otherwise runs on CPU
threshold=0.5, # you can experiment with different thresholds
return_scores=False, # when true, return the prediction scores instead of bools. default false.
)
thread.put(audio)
predictions = thread.get( # same arguments as queue.Queue.get()
block=True,
timeout=None
)
first_audio_has_wakeword = predictions[0] # bool by defaultThese are some potentially useful JavaScript snippets for working with raw audio samples.

abstract = {Sounds produced in the world reflect off surrounding surfaces on their way to our ears. Known as reverberation, these reflections distort sound but provide information about the world around us. We asked whether reverberation exhibits statistical regularities that listeners use to separate its effects from those of a sound’s source. We conducted a large-scale statistical analysis of real-world acoustics, revealing strong regularities of reverberation in natural scenes. We found that human listeners can estimate the contributions of the source and the environment from reverberant sound, but that they depend critically on whether environmental acoustics conform to the observed statistical regularities. The results suggest a separation process constrained by knowledge of environmental acoustics that is internalized over development or evolution. In everyday listening, sound reaches our ears directly from a source as well as indirectly via reflections known as reverberation. Reverberation profoundly distorts the sound from a source, yet humans can both identify sound sources and distinguish environments from the resulting sound, via mechanisms that remain unclear. The core computational challenge is that the acoustic signatures of the source and environment are combined in a single signal received by the ear. Here we ask whether our recognition of sound sources and spaces reflects an ability to separate their effects and whether any such separation is enabled by statistical regularities of real-world reverberation. To first determine whether such statistical regularities exist, we measured impulse responses (IRs) of 271 spaces sampled from the distribution encountered by humans during daily life. The sampled spaces were diverse, but their IRs were tightly constrained, exhibiting exponential decay at frequency-dependent rates: Mid frequencies reverberated longest whereas higher and lower frequencies decayed more rapidly, presumably due to absorptive properties of materials and air. To test whether humans leverage these regularities, we manipulated IR decay characteristics in simulated reverberant audio. Listeners could discriminate sound sources and environments from these signals, but their abilities degraded when reverberation characteristics deviated from those of real-world environments. Subjectively, atypical IRs were mistaken for sound sources. The results suggest the brain separates sound into contributions from the source and the environment, constrained by a prior on natural reverberation. This separation process may contribute to robust recognition while providing information about spaces around us.}
