There are locally hosted (not connected to internet) home assistants. They take more setup but are a lot more customizable, especially the open source ones.
Hope you like 40 second response times unless you use a GPU model.
I've hosted one on a raspberry pi and it took at most a second to process and act on commands. Basic speech to text doesn't require massive models and has become much less compute intensive in the past decade.
