Snips team notice reproduced by Home Assistant, with LWN developer's completed retrospective ↗ · Checked 29 Oct 2026

Verification notes

Shutdown: Home Assistant's original December 3, 2019 report reproduces the Snips team's notice naming January 31, 2020 for console closure and project completion/downloads. The original forum URL is currently inaccessible; the preserved screenshot was personally read. LWN's March 21, 2023 retrospective independently says the web-based console was shut down, by an author who describes his own Snips skill development and a 2019 CTO interview. Use the original planned day as an explicit inferred proxy, not a measured final cutoff; do not set serviceEndedAt to that day. The announcement day, actual cutoff day and time zone remain unknown. Scope is the whole named public hosted assistant-building workspace. Existing local assistants, open-source NLU libraries, Sonos products and the continuing Paris voice team are excluded. This is not an acquisition-only or repository-maintenance grave. Closure source

Launch: The team’s 2019 notice says the console had operated for three years. The exact first public availability day remains unknown; company founding and local-engine releases are separate milestones.
Location: France · Paris. The operator's own acquisition page states that the team continues operating from Paris.
