Patent number: 11102624Abstract: Approaches provide for generating an introductory text message to be delivered to a recipient when a voice-enabled communications device is used to send a message to the recipient for a first time. For example, audio input data that includes an instruction to send a text message can be received and an application can analyze the audio input data to determine an instruction to send a text message, a message body, and an intended recipient of the text message. The application can determine whether a text message has previously been sent to the intended recipient using the voice-enabled communications device or another device associated with the customer's account. In the situation where a text message has been sent, a text message is generated that includes the message body and the application causes the text message to be sent to the intended recipient.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2018Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Ryan Christopher Rapp, Douglas Vincent O'Dell, Kathryn Lynn Parker, Jonathan Leonard Da Silva, Ian Michael Menzies, Christo Frank Devaraj, David Michael Rowell
