The Alexa Fund provides up to $100 million in venture capital funding to fuel voice technology innovation. We believe experiences designed around the human voice will fundamentally improve the way people use technology. Since introducing Alexa-enabled devices like the Amazon Echo, we’ve heard from developers, device-makers, and companies of all sizes that want to innovate with voice. Whether that’s creating new Alexa capabilities with the Alexa Skills Kit (ASK), building devices that use Alexa for new and novel voice experiences using the Alexa Voice Service (AVS), inventing core voice-enabling technology, or developing a product or service that can expand the boundaries of voice technology, we’d love to talk to you.
What types of companies does the Alexa Fund support?
The Alexa Fund is focused on how voice technology can 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.
