How far away is the Home Assistant Voice Preview from what you’re looking for?
It doesn’t plug directly into the wall but instead uses a USB C cable (that you provide). Other than this, mine can answer questions, search the internet, turn things on and off, play music via Spotify, Jellyfin, etc. Tell me about the state of stuff in Home Assistant (temps in rooms, how the solar is doing, what’s on my shopping list and can add things, etc).
It requires you already have Home Assistant set up but it is a pretty good experience so long as you’re willing to do some amount of tinkering to make it your own.
Like other comments say it’s not general public ready but it’s pretty close and costs $69.
Yeah that’s why I called it out. It seemed like it was an important part.
There probably isn’t an actual reason why you couldn’t connect it to a wall plug in a way that replicates this setup even if a bit hacky. E.g. short cable then attach the unit to the top of the plug. It’s not that heavy and may attach fine without coming out of the wall.
If you can find a hass replacement for the Echo Flex, I will name my firstborn after you.

That’s a huge deal: it stays out of the way and it’s a complete unit.
