Claim 0:
1. A non-transitory computer readable medium having one or more computer program instructions configured to perform a method comprising:
receiving sensor data from a subset of sensors including one or more sensors via one or more data links into a smart speaker computing device configured to implement voice-controlled commands, the smart speaker computing device including one or more of a processor and a memory disposed in a housing;
predicting a type of appliance or device to which a sensor in the subset of sensors is coupled;
characterizing usage of a consumable or receiving data characterizing the usage of the consumable to identify a rate of consumption of the consumable as a function of one or more patterns of usage associated with power consumption of the type of appliance or device;
correlating data representing the rate of consumption to at least one pattern of usage associated with a subset of the sensor data to form a value representing an amount of consumption;
generating data representing a request to replenish an inventory of the consumable based on the amount of consumption as a function of the power consumption the type of appliance or device, the data representing the request to replenish being transformed from at least one of the voice-controlled-commands, the at least one of the voice controlled-commands being received in response to an audio request to replenish the consumable, the audio request being automatically generated by and rendered audible by the smart speaker computing device when the amount of the consumable matches a threshold value; and
transmitting the data representing the request to replenish the inventory to one or more merchant computing devices.
