◆ AICNCT
Alexa and Alexa+

Customers ask Alexa. Your own facts answer.

Two paths. The classic AICNCT skill answers for every participating verified business — opening hours, contact, products and how to book — from the facts the business publishes itself. Alexa+ add-ons can call a site's own /mcp, but only for Amazon's partners today.

Customers will say

“Alexa, ask ai connect about …”

The shared “ai connect” skill is being prepared and is not live yet. Alexa+ add-ons are a separate, partner-only programme (US). Verified businesses can get ready today.

Alexa+ is in early access in Germany and Austria since May 2026 and generally available in the US and Canada. Classic skills keep working on original Alexa, and Amazon states that classic skills remain available with Alexa+; whether a German classic skill opens by its invocation name on an Alexa+ device is not yet tested. Amazon gives no guarantee of discovery.

Two paths: Alexa and Alexa+

We say which path exists today, which is being prepared and which depends on Amazon.

Classic skill · being prepared

“Alexa, ask ai connect about …”

One AICNCT skill built with the Alexa Skills Kit answers for every participating verified business from its published facts. It is being prepared and is not live yet; it supports German and English. It answers and points to your booking or shop page — purchases and bookings complete on your own pages.

Alexa+ add-ons · partner-only, US

Alexa+ add-ons from your /mcp

Alexa+ for Builders lets a partner connect its own MCP server as an add-on with checkout through Amazon Wallet. In October 2026 this is a private preview for selected partners, and the Alexa+ Store is US-only. If you qualify, we help with the application and prepare the add-on from your /mcp; we do not claim an Alexa+ add-on until Amazon has approved it.

One skill for every verified business

Customers remember one phrase; your business gets answers grounded in its own facts.

Questions about Alexa

Can customers use the skill today?

Not yet. The shared “ai connect” skill is being prepared. Verified businesses that take part are answered as soon as it is live.

What can Alexa answer about my business?

Opening hours, contact details, products and how to book. Answers are grounded in your site's own published facts and may be incomplete where the site says little.

Can customers buy by voice?

Not through our skill: it tells customers what you offer and how to book, and customers complete purchases and bookings on your own pages. In-conversation checkout exists only in Alexa+ add-ons for Amazon's partners in the US.

Can my business have its own skill?

Yes. Businesses can add their own branded skill next to the shared one. We publish it only on the owner's written authorisation.

What happens to my customers' data?

The spoken request is processed as text, to answer it. The Alexa user id is kept only as a one-way hash for rate limiting and is not stored with requests. There is no account linking. Privacy policy: Alexa

Who operates the skills?

Innovius UG, the company behind AICNCT, operates the shared skill and every per-business skill. Terms: Alexa skills

Does this work with Alexa+ in Germany?

Alexa+ is in early access in Germany and Austria since May 2026. Amazon states that classic skills remain available with Alexa+; whether a German classic skill, once live, opens by its invocation name on an Alexa+ device is not yet tested. Alexa+ add-ons built from your /mcp require Amazon's partner programme, which is US-only today. We mark both paths “not tested by us yet” until a real test exists.

Be ready before customers ask.

Verify your business in AICNCT now, so ai connect can answer for you once the skill is live — and so your /mcp is ready if Alexa+ add-ons open to you.
