A more natural voice, optionally
Planned after remote control · optional paid add-on
Dormouse can speak an unattended terminal’s name using your browser or system voice today. A hosted ElevenLabs option will add a more natural voice without making you set up or manage an ElevenLabs account.
Browser speech will stay available. ElevenLabs voice will be optional, and the app will explain what text leaves your computer before you turn it on.
Self-hosting stays
The Relay remains available in the repository under FSL-1.1-MIT and free for internal use. Hosted will be a paid convenience option, not a replacement. If you would rather operate it, the self-hosting guide is ready now.
