Are you building voice bots for Alexa? If not, you’re missing a big opportunity out there. Alexa has now passed 15,000 skills, with 3x increase from last September. What’s interesting here is that most popular skills are still Flash Briefings — voice-activated news pieces from different publications. Comparing to other platforms, Alexa is much ahead. Google Home has just 378 voice apps available as of June 30, and Microsoft’s Cortana has only 65. You should definitely bet on Alexa as business or bot developer. Right now the quality of bots out there is not so good, and it’s a big opportunity. Don’t wait until it will be great. Don’t wait until every business will be there. Start building now. https://techcrunch.com/2017/07/03/amazons-alexa-passes-15000-skills-up-from-10000-in-february/
