1. Wake Word Activation

Users utter a wake word (e.g., "Alexa") to activate the virtual assistant on their Alexa-enabled device.

2. Speech Input

The device listens for natural language input from the user in the form of questions or commands.

3. Natural Language Processing

Alexa processes the user's speech with Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), converts it to text, and then understands intent with Natural Language Understanding (NLU).

4. Response Delivery

Alexa responds accordingly, answering questions, executing commands, or indicating an inability to act.
