Summary

Smart speakers like Amazon Alexa and Google Home enable users to voice simple commands, which can help connect with customers where it's most convenient for them. A structured content model can capture these commands and responses, empowering flexibility, scalability, and reuse across all digital channels. The Contentful Composable Content Platform can fuel voice-led experiences with Alexa, ensuring ease of use for editorial teams. By leveraging composable content, intents, utterances, and slots, users can create scalable and reusable content for smart speakers like Alexa, without needing to create new intents for every recipe or update the request logic in the function. This approach allows developers to manage recipes at scale, using a search engine like Algolia to index content and integrate it with Contentful. The platform also enables integrations with devices and systems preferred by customers, including those who rely on voice assistants for accessibility reasons, making it easier to meet their needs.
