You code, Alexa comes to life. Create new Skills for Alexa, the brain behind Amazon Echo.

If you're looking for the Alexa Skills Challenge: Kids (deadline: Jan. 10, 2018 @ 5pm EST), please go here!

Alexa, the voice service behind the Amazon Echo and Echo Dot, is changing how we interact with the world.Through the Alexa Skills Kit, a set of free, self-service, public APIs, developers can easily create new experiences for Alexa. We want you to create unique new skills that make Alexa smarter.

Alexa can be a concierge, sous chef, fitness coach, personal shopper, and DJ — every time you add a new skill, Alexa gets a new ability. Alexa skills enable voice-activated interactions that let users crank up Bon Iver, order flowers, turn on your dishwasher, cool down with your A/C, or geek out on Star Trek, all without lifting a pinkie.

And that’s just scratching the surface! Amazon has designed the Alexa Skills Kit so you can easily teach Alexa new ways to make life more convenient, organized, and fun.

Sign up for the Amazon Alexa Skills Challenge and help build the future of personal AI.
