Alexa Voice Service
Start creating a device with Alexa built-in. With AVS, your device gains access to the growing number of Alexa capabilities, including feature updates, custom skills, and international availability. The AVS speech engines live in the cloud and are made available through public APIs. Amazon provides you with options for how to connect with our APIs and create devices with Alexa built-in, whether with development tools like the AVS Device SDK and hardware reference solutions, or through AVS Solution Providers including Systems Integrators and Original Design Manufacturers.
AVS provides programming interfaces, or APIs, that enable you to access our cloud-based voice service from your connected devices. The AVS Device SDK is optimized to make it easier for commercial device makers to leverage the AVS APIs and build clients that handle core Alexa functionality. This C++-based SDK is ideal for creating products with Alexa built-in like smart speakers, multi-room speakers, smart home devices, and more.
