Yes, the business context is holding back such amazing innovation for voice assistants like Siri! There are also a couple apps I use, one being brain.fm, which I would love to see integrate with Siri for voice control but I believe they don’t because they have to pay to integrate with Siri. Or is Siri integration free from an app developer perspective?

It's free in the same way that any iOS APIs are, but one could argue that there's a cost in terms of development and QA resources, etc. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sirikit
