                       PURSUANT TO RULES 13a-14 AND 15d-14
                   OF THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934

I, Rob Larcara, President and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Accounting
Officer), certify that:

1. I have reviewed this quarterly report on Form 10-QSB for the period ending
March 31, 2004, of Voice Powered Technology International, Inc.;

2. Based on my knowledge, this quarterly report does not contain any untrue
statements of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make
the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements
were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this quarterly
report;

3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all material
respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the
registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this quarterly report;

4. I am the registrant's only certifying officer. I am responsible for
establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in
Exchange Act Rules 13a-15e and 15d-15e) for the registrant and have:

       a. designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such
       disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under my supervision,
       to ensure that material information relating to the registrant, including
       its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those
       entities, particularly during the period in which this quarterly report
       is being prepared;

       b. evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure controls
       and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the
       effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of
       the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and

       c. disclosed in this report any change in the registrant's internal
       control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant's
       most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant's fourth fiscal quarter in the
       case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably
       likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over
       financial reporting; and

5. I am the registrant's only certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on
my most recent evaluation, to the registrant's auditors and audit committee of
the registrant's board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent
functions):





                                     31.1-1



       a. all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or
       operation of internal control over financial reporting which are
       reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant's ability to record,
       process, summarize and report financial reporting; and

       b. any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other
       employees who have a significant role in the registrant's internal
       controls; and
