Tuya Smart, a global AI + IoT platform, and Russian internet giant Yandex have announced that Tuya is now fully integrated with Yandex's 'Alice' voice assistant, granting users control of their smart products.
Alice is the most popular voice assistant in Russia, with more than 1 billion Alice queries monthly.
Through the integration, Tuya clients get direct control through Alice, and Yandex Alice gain more third-party devices worldwide without additional integration. Yandex is providing Alice IoT solutions to hotels, house developers and direct customers already, which will also add to Tuya's ecosystem in AI+IoT.
Tuya's AIoT platform now integrates with major voice assistants globally, including Amazon Alexa, Google, and Yandex Alice, through Tuya's pre-designed networking modules, cloud services and an app to control those products. Tuya is working with over 100,000 clients globally, and with its integration with Alice, Tuya users can connect and control Yandex supported products directly.
Yandex's Alice will be demonstrated at Tuya Smart's booth at IFA 2019, along with many of the leading smart home brands they power, to demonstrate how easily and seamlessly they can be controlled through Tuya's platform.
Tuya will continue to work closely with Russian brands, including both online and offline sales channels and market operators. This will enable Tuya to serve both businesses and clients and provide smart product services for single product and full smart home set-up scenarios.
