There are many cloud-less Alexas already, a good one is rhasspy https://rhasspy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/, it is not based on deepspeech though.

In the repo/docs, it suggests that DeepSpeech is an option for some languages (English & German). Haven't tried it, but with recent(ish) performance improvements in DS it can run on somewhat less powerful computers than used to be the case.

Other options for similar assistants that can also use DS are Mycroft (https://mycroft-ai.gitbook.io/docs/using-mycroft-ai/customiz...) and DragonFire (https://github.com/DragonComputer/Dragonfire)
