"You no longer need an Amazon device to summon Alexa since the AI assistant will be available on the Alexa.com website. Amazon will roll out the web client to its Alexa+ Early Access customers first, still featuring the company's new and improved AI assistant that was announced in February. The web model won't be much different from the existing Alexa+ that's already available on Echo devices, Fire TV and Fire tablets."
"However, instead of buying into the Amazon ecosystem, Early Access customers can use any web browser to get Alexa+'s help with everything from basic questions to complex tasks, like controlling your smart home devices, customizing a recipe to account for dietary restrictions or making restaurant reservations if you don't feel like cooking. The Alexa+ web version will also feature a navigation sidebar that will be home to your most-used Alexa features."
Amazon announced at CES 2026 that Alexa+ for web will roll out to Early Access customers first. Alexa+ will be accessible via Alexa.com so users no longer need an Amazon device to summon the assistant. The web client mirrors Alexa+ on Echo devices, Fire TV and Fire tablets and includes a navigation sidebar for frequently used features. Early Access users can use any web browser to ask basic questions, perform complex tasks, control smart home devices, customize recipes for dietary restrictions, or make restaurant reservations. The web launch follows updates to the Alexa mobile app and integrations with Ring and BMW, positioning Alexa+ against ChatGPT and Google Gemini.
