Does the Kwikset Aura Reach work with HomeKit, Alexa, and Google Home?

The Kwikset Aura Reach is a keypad deadbolt with Bluetooth for the Kwikset app and Matter over Thread built in.

It has no Wi-Fi, so remote use runs through a Matter platform and a Thread-capable hub. It suits HomeKit, Google Home, Alexa and SmartThings users, with native support through Matter over Thread. Home Assistant users reach it through an integration (Matter over Thread).
