Jumping in with a small research just minutes before replying to this topic. If dev is serious with this idea --and I have to agree that it is a great feature, not many crypto payment service has this feature--, it probably will not be that difficult that it requires one whole year to develop.
Integrating voice assistant to our phone means we need to co-exist with siri or google assistant, or bixby if we count samsung user. I'm not sure about siri, but android allows us to replace google assistant with other voice assistant of our preference, like... Amazon's Alexa.
Now, Amazon have this project called
VII (that's V-I-I, not roman numeral for 7) that basically integrates dozen of voice assistant under Alexa.
As Elitium already have this concept in mind (and roadmap) I would assume they have the general idea of what to do, how to build the app, etc., they can ride VII to achieve this roadmap easier.
Another benefit, that I can imagine, of integrating with Amazon will be an easier access to e-commerce as they're working with the giant e-commerce themselves. Thus, that bag for wivey's birthday is more approachable
Do you know what they mean by "voice agents" when referring to combining these systematic entries? Would it categorize recognized voices based on the household using it?
There isn't any rush to develop VERA as it needs to be structured and presented properly. AI is based off a lot of different algo, esp machine learning. It's like watching a child grow up- you can't rush him to get a job and help pay the bills

Alexa and Siri have made incredible developments within the past few years. However, with VERA, it will help support the same use-case Alexa makes as a virtual assistant. "Hey
VERA, book my next ticket to Dubai!"
There is further information on VERA in a medium blog we released last year:
