Just in these days Amazon has announced its new project. It is about Alexa Skill Blueprint, a new feature that allows users to create skills and personalized answers for Alexa. This way, you can “shape” the voice assistant to your liking, so that it can answer your questions just the way you want or help you with the housework as best you can. A bespoke Alexa, imagine it this way. But let's see in more detail what it is.
Alexa Skill Blueprint: what it is and how it works
As anticipated, Alexa Skill Blueprint is a feature that allows you to create real personalized experiences on Alexa in minutes. You can then teach your voice assistant to answer questions like "Who is the nicest person living in this house?" or "What is the most beautiful city in the world?". You can have fun entertaining friends or relatives with piquant jokes and answers, or simply ask Alexa to plan household chores for the whole family, so as to make life at home a lot easier. But once it's clear what it does, it remains to figure out how to teach Alexa all of this.
“Alexa Skill Blueprint is a whole new way to train Alexa through custom Skills just for us and our family,” he said Steve Rabuchin, Vice President of the Amazon Alexa Section. “You don't need programming or skill building experience to get started. My family created our Skill dedicated to sarcastic digs in minutes, and it was really fun to interact with Alexa in a totally new and personalized way ”.
A simple and intuitive method of use, therefore. Just fill in a form by entering all the information you want to customize in the appropriate fields. Nothing difficult. Once done, all Skills will be available on the devices associated with your Amazon account or, if you like, they can be made public in the Alexa Skill store.
How to create custom skills
We've already pointed out that you don't need programming skills at all to be able to use the Alexa Skill Blueprint. Do you want to know how to create your own custom Skills? By following three simple steps.
- Choose the template you want on the Alexa Skill Blueprint site. You have well available 12 Skills divided into four different categories: At Home, Fun and Games, Communities and Organizations, Learning and Knowledge.
- Each template appears pre-filled, but you have the option to customize it at will.
- Once you confirm your customization, it will be available for all devices associated with your Amazon account.
Nothing complicated. Especially if you consider that you have the possibility to create as many custom Skills as you want, without there being a limit of experiences to create. And if you want to change something, you can do it without any kind of problem. Alexa Skill Blueprint really gives you the ability to do whatever you want. On the other hand, it is the new frontier of Amazon personalization.
