The new Alexa, code-named “Remarkable Alexa” internally, will reportedly cost $5 to $10 per month, offered alongside a less capable free plan. Some reports indicated that it would arrive in October, but it’s seemingly suffering delays.
Bloomberg reports the timeline has slipped into 2025.
Despite being in over a half billion devices worldwide, Alexa hasn’t contributed meaningfully to Amazon’s bottom line. The company has lost tens of billions of dollars in its devices business since 2017, according to The Wall Street Journal.
