Even if I am probably younger than **YOU**, I use AI, I use assistants, I use the web; but still, I have always known that my data is there, in those **Data Centres** and frankly *I can't stop it*. I also can't stop using Gemini or ChatGPT!

All the **Voice Assistants** claiming local, private, safe... are they actually doing what they say? I was concerned...

That's why I decided to create my own AI voice assistant with one aim **local, private, safe and powerful**.

Churo has been sculpted particularly for privacy, safety and power. Churo is *not* only a **Voice Assistant** but a **Copilot** that sits in your terminal at all times.

Churo is equipped with the top-of-the-line **Text-to-Speech and Speech-to-Text** for providing you the experience of talking to a real person.

With the following features:

**Either go to:**

**OR**

Run:

`pip install churovoice`

`churovoice --voice male`

THIS IS CURRENTLY MAC ONLY AND WINDOWS SUPPORT IS COMING IN V2.0.1**
