Pocket Broker | Devpost

Inspiration

Our inspiration was to make a tool that we would use in everyday life. Crypto markets never sleep. Traditional advisors do. We wanted to create an assistant that never logs off. Old-school traders would literally pick up the phone and call their broker. We thought: what if you could revive that experience, but with someone who is always ready to answer, supply you with the most recent data and trade on your behalf?

What it does

Pocket Broker is a voice-based crypto asset manager. You simply call and speak naturally - no apps, no screens, no complicated interfaces. It verifies your identity through voice, analyzes your current portfolio in real-time, answers your questions, provides expert market insights, and suggests and executes trades on your behalf.

Functionality

Real-time market research/analysis
Real-time portfolio evaluation
Real-time portfolio restructuring suggestions
Real-time cryptocurrency trading at user request
On-voice user authentication
Abusing user/other agents to buy shitcoins literally as the Wolf of Wall Street did (not included into MVP due to ethical implications, but the second feature we did:))
Accept phone calls from VAPI worlwide using browser

Challenges we ran into

Unability to accept a call from US, unfeasibility of customisation when using alternatives, had to implement custom own solution to it
Complexity of integrating orchestrator with VAPI
Latency issues (had to remove custom RAG to allow real-time interaction)
No API for real-time cryptocurrency trading on testnets/demo acounts, real money only
