Assignment: Sibyl
Catalog design systems, UI frameworks, and media toolchains that could serve as the visual/audio/video layer for koad:io interfaces (Alice browser harness, entity portals, admin dashboards). Focus on sovereignty-aligned options.
What we're looking for
UI/Design Systems
- Self-hosted, no CDN/cloud dependencies
- No telemetry, no analytics baked in
- Open source with permissive or copyleft license
- Works well on mobile (Alice voice UX)
- Theming/white-label capability (each entity portal can have its own outfit/palette)
- Accessible, lightweight, progressive enhancement
- Bonus: works with Meteor/Blaze or is framework-agnostic
Voice/Audio
- Self-hostable TTS engines (not just cloud APIs)
- Voice synthesis/cloning that can run local or on owned infrastructure
- Speech-to-text engines (Whisper variants, etc.)
- Real-time voice streaming for browser-based conversation
- Audio processing/effects for entity voice identity
Video
- Self-hostable video generation, avatars, or talking-head synthesis
- Browser-based video/camera integration
- Streaming infrastructure (WebRTC, HLS) that can run sovereign
- Avatar animation from voice input (lip sync, expressions)
- Video recording/editing toolchains that run local
Evaluation criteria
Score each on: sovereignty (no phone-home), maturity, mobile support, theming depth, bundle size, accessibility, maintenance activity, license compatibility, local-inference capability.
Context
Alice's browser course needs a polished mobile-first UI with voice support. Entity portals (churchofhappy.com, kingofalldata.com) each need distinct visual identity driven by the outfit system. The design system must be something we can own completely — no dependency on someone else's CDN or service. Voice and video are part of entity identity — each entity could have its own voice, its own avatar, its own visual presence.
Deliverables
- Catalog with scores across all three domains (UI, audio, video)
- Periodic revisits (quarterly)
- Recommendations for adoption/fork
