Google was late to the market with Google Home (and really Google Assistant in general), but the company has slowly been expanding its feature set and making it available to more countries around the world. However, as the Google Home costs $130 if purchased from the Google Store, it's hard for users to justify purchasing...
With the launch of the Google Assistant SDK, 3rd-party companies are now able to embed Google's virtual assistant technology into products of their own.
