Systems, methods, and devices with reduced power consumption in network microphone devices. In one embodiment, a network microphone device is configured to perform a method that includes (i) capturing audio content; (ii) using a first algorithm to perform a keyword detection process for determining whether the audio content includes a keyword; (iii) responsive to determining that the audio content includes the keyword, using a second, more computationally intensive algorithm to perform a wake-word detection process for determining whether the audio content includes a wake word; and (iv) responsive to performing the wake-word detection process, (a) causing a voice service corresponding to the wake word to process the audio content if the wake-word detection process confirms that the audio content includes the wake word or (b) ceasing performance of the wake-word detection process if the wake-word detection process disconfirms that the audio content includes the wake word.
