The Alexa Fund is open to companies that have innovative products or services that use voice technology to improve customers’ lives — from early-stage pre-revenue companies that are just starting out, to established brands. Areas of particular interest include:

• Hardware products for inside the home, outside the home, or on-the-go that would benefit from the Alexa Voice Service.
• Skills that deliver new abilities to Alexa-enabled devices through the Alexa Skills Kit.
• New contributions to the science behind voice technology, including text to speech, natural language understanding, automatic speech recognition, artificial intelligence and hardware component design.

Now tell us about you and your company. If there's a good fit with what we're looking for, we'll be in touch to discuss the details. We encourage you to check out the Alexa Skills Kit and Alexa Voice Service prior to applying.
