Egyptian virtual assistant platform Elves is targeting millennials around the world after raising USD 2 mn in seed funding last year from investors including Emaar, CMO Mohammed Sabry tells Disrupt Africa. The app allows users to talk to a “super human assistant” to do anything, anywhere in the world, at no cost, according to Sabry. “From booking dinner reservations, picking up your groceries, paying your bills, to booking all your travel; if its legal and doable by you or a personal assistant, we can do it, usually faster and better,” he said.
