Abstract: A speech-processing system may provide access to multiple virtual assistants via one or more voice-controlled devices. Each assistant may leverage language processing and language generation features of the speech-processing system, while handling different commands and/or providing access to different back applications. Different assistants may be available for use with a particular voice-controlled device based on time, location, the particular user, etc. The voice-controlled device may include components for facilitating user interaction with multiple assistants. For example, a multi-assistant component may facilitate enabling/disabling assistants, assigning gestures and/or wakewords, etc. The multi-assistant component may handle routing commands to a command processing subsystem corresponding to an assistant invoked by the command. The voice controlled device may further include observer components, each configured to monitor the voice-controlled device for invocations of a particular assistant.

Abstract: A speech-processing system may provide access to multiple virtual assistants via one or more voice-controlled devices. Each assistant may leverage language processing and language generation features of the speech-processing system, while handling different commands and/or providing access to different back applications. Each assistant may be associated with its own voice and/or speech style, and thus be perceived as having a particular “personality.” In some situations, a user may invoke a first assistant, e.g., with a wakeword or button press, and provide a command that the speech-processing system may determine will be better handled by a second assistant. The speech-processing system may thus call on a component to generate plan data describing one or more operations for the speech-processing system to execute to handoff the command to the second assistant and provide the user with indications of which assistant will handle the command.

Each assistant may be associated with its own voice and/or speech style, and thus be perceived as having a particular “personality.” Different assistants may be available for use with a particular voice-controlled device based on time, location, the particular user, etc. In some situations, language processing may be improved by leveraging data such as intent data, grammars, lexicons, entities, etc., associated with assistants available for use with the particular voice-controlled device.
