Photo: digitaltrends.com · rights & takedowns

Amazon announced that Alexa Plus, its generative AI-powered assistant, is now available to all US Prime members and to non-Prime users via a free chat tier or a $19.99 monthly subscription, effective immediately. First launched in March 2025 in Early Access and powered by Amazon Nova and Anthropic LLMs, the assistant adds deeper conversational capabilities for booking, planning, and smart-home routines.

Key Points

  • 1Launches Alexa Plus nationally with Prime access, paid $19.99 tier, and free chat option
  • 2Integrates Amazon Nova and Anthropic LLMs to deliver deeper conversational understanding and complex task handling
  • 3Enables practitioners to build richer voice/chat workflows for scheduling, commerce, home automation and content creation

Scoring Rationale

Official Amazon product expansion with broad US rollout and notable LLM partnerships, limited by incremental rather than novel technical innovation.
