A great alternative for Siri and Google Assistant

Virtual assistants like Siri and Google Assistant have made a lot of users’ lives easier and more convenient, but while these two are undeniably amazing, it’s still a good idea to have alternatives. HOUND is a virtual assistant alternative offered by SoundHound. It works like Siri and Google Assistant except that HOUND is activated with the phrase, “Ok, HOUND”. The response time is fast and users can use HOUND to do any number of tasks. HOUND can do research, set alarms, and even play music. It can also forecast the weather, make calculations, and book transportation. With HOUND, accomplishing tasks won’t even require lifting a finger.
