UX goes voice

UX goes voice

Designing experiences to be spoken

In short

45% of US adults use at least one voice-activated digital personal assistant, such as Siri (Apple), Google Now, Cortana (Microsoft) or Alexa (Amazon), according to Forrester Data.

A low-friction, highly personalised experience: reminders, appointments, dinner bookings…

Users have high expectations of this new form of interaction.

Easier, faster and more human (the voice as the only intermediary).

New ways to express brand identity: words, conversation, tone of voice, etc.

Brands with a voice identity, as if they were human.
