Jed,

Yes, HamVoIP works very well when used directly as the repeater controller.  I have this setup with all my repeaters.  For example, here is are old photo from the Beaglebone Black era, interfaced to a Kenwood TKR repeater.  These days, just use an RPi in place of the BBB.  These are photos of my "bench test" TKR-850 from 2014 (wow how time flies!):

Are you wanting a "assembly required" USB fob or already build and packaged?

Originally I used DMK URI hardware.  Now, I'm using Master's Communications RL-20 boards for new installations.

I'll take some photos of the latest "evolution," where I'm using RPiZ2W boards, which also work great.
