Inspiration

According to Pew Research Center, nearly half of U.S. adults use voice assistants already; among people 18-49, it’s 55%. Meanwhile, the technology is showing up on more and more devices—computers, phones, thermostats, appliances, televisions, and, yes, smart speakers like Google Home and Amazon Echo. While it’s super difficult to accurately predict what’s coming (just look at this collection of voice assistant predictions and stats), I believe this is a fundamental shift in the way people interact with machines, and we need to start designing for it now. So I thought to take this opportunity to build Alexa skill to perform almost all thigs related to Insurance policy using Power of Alexa ?
