and others. In fact, I think Audacity has a de-verb plugin.

I'd guess that someone could do a processor sort of like ToneDexter, where you could train a DSP process to convert your bad sound to a good sound. But the more typical approach is to make your room as dead as possible, and then impose the sound of a good sounding room on that - there are tons of plugins that do that. UAD has a fun one that puts you in the Oceans Way studio and lets you pick a room, change the mic placement, etc:

but there are many. TC's VSS3 plugin has lots of spaces you can impose on your sound, often used in film production. Like would you like to sound like you're in a phone booth, or a gym, or the back of a volkswagon beetle? There are plugins that will let you do that, but they're going to work best on a dry direct sound with as little of it's own "room sound" as possible.
iZotope RX has a de-reverb module as well
