Samsara is free and open source for individuals and organisations. This page is for teams evaluating it as an accessibility tool or interested in a future supported deployment.
Accessibility and accommodation duties vary by jurisdiction and situation. For some employees with repetitive-strain injuries, chronic pain, or motor disabilities, reducing keyboard and mouse use can be a meaningful part of an accommodation plan.
Samsara is open source, keeps its core dictation and commands local, and can be adapted to workplace tools through its plugin system and extensible command set. It is still beta software and should be evaluated against the reliability, privacy, security, and support requirements of the intended environment.
Samsara is available under AGPL-3.0. Individuals and organisations may use it under that license, including for commercial purposes, while complying with its terms.
There is no established commercial support programme yet. If your organisation wants to evaluate Samsara, sponsor accessibility work, or discuss a pilot, use the form below. Capacity and scope are assessed case by case; this page is not a promise of availability or response time.
This page is a product overview, not legal advice. Review the AGPL-3.0 terms for your situation.
Evaluate Samsara on a small number of workstations and document the required microphone, audio, display, and application configuration.
Assess whether a workplace tool can be reached safely through Samsara's existing command and plugin interfaces.
Prototype a bounded set of commands for a specific workflow and test them with the people who will actually use them.
Document hands-free, dictation, microphone, and command workflows for a pilot group.
Samsara is built by a solo developer with 10 years in IT systems administration. I built it because I needed it. Chronic pain in my hands made it increasingly difficult to work at a keyboard all day. The existing tools were either too expensive, too limited, or too dependent on cloud services.
I use Samsara every day. That lived experience shapes the product, but organisational deployment and support are still being developed rather than sold as a mature service.
