Voice as an input as well as an interface is considered by many to be the next frontier in human advancement. According to Voicebot, there are nearly 90 million US adults owning smart speakers. This adoption exceeds over a third of consumers with a compounded annual growth rate exceeding 30%, over the past three years.
In January 2020, I went to the Project  Voice conference in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Aside from discovering a lot about voice technology, devices, and conversational AI, I met some brilliant people shaping the future of this amazing interface. One memorable interaction I had, was with Stacey Kyler and Guy Tonye from Zammo.ai. Zammo is a great example of the rich fruits, born of voice technology and NoCode sensibility.
This episode wouldn't have been possible without Bradley Metrock, host of "This Week In Voice", and Executive Producer of the Project Voice series of conferences and experiences. Here is a link to register for the Project Voice 2021. I've also included a brief excerpt from Bradley's interview with  Mark Cuban, who gives some good advice on how to thrive in this nascent industry of voice. 
Zammo Demo - 10 mins. 
FYI - Guy is from Cameroon (b/w West and Central Africa). His name is French and is pronounced like the Gi you wear in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
