Abstract
Techniques for implementing multiple wakeword detectors on a single device are described. A digital signal processor (DSP) of the device may initially include an untrained wakeword detection component. The wakeword detection component of the DSP may be trained by engaging a user to speak particular utterances. Once a companion application is configured to implement a wakeword detection component, the companion application's wakeword detection component may be trained specific to the user of the device. Once the companion application's wakeword detection component is trained, the DSP wakeword detection component may be deactivated or its accuracy adjusted.
