Branded skill, your masthead
Your name, your sections, your voice. We build and publish the skill under your brand on the Alexa Skills store.
Alexa for Publishers
Your newspaper, on 100 million Alexa devices.
A branded Alexa skill for your publication. Readers hear your news, see it on Echo Show screens, follow along line by line, and tune in to live local radio — all from your CMS.
Beyond reading
Readers can now hear — and interact with — your news.
Interactive screen designs
APL-enabled interfaces for Echo Show that put navigation in the reader's hands — front page, sections, community, webcams.
AI article summaries
Every article carries a dynamically generated summary, so a listener gets the gist before the full read.
Read-along mode
Alexa narrates while the current line highlights and the text scrolls — karaoke-style, built for accessibility.
24/7 live radio
Curated local stations stream inside the skill for real-time updates and community programming.
Easy CMS integration
Publishing with Our Hometown, BLOX Digital, WordPress, or another CMS? We connect to it. No double entry.
Read-along
Follow every line as Alexa reads it
The line being narrated highlights in yellow and the paragraph scrolls automatically. Built for visually impaired readers and for anyone who learns by listening.
Summaries
The gist first, the story on request
AI-generated summaries let readers scan headlines by voice and dive into what matters. Your editorial stays yours; the summary is a door, not a replacement.

Live radio
The whole community in one skill
Local radio channels, community pages, and live webcams sit beside the news — the skill becomes the town's speaker, not just the paper's.
