What distinguishes the VOGO Voice self-service platform as a DIY platform?

  • Build custom voice skills – DIY

It’s never been easier to build a bespoke voice app. Leverage the speed of drag-and-drop functionality and the power of voice tech to transform your idea into a complete voice application in days instead of months.

  • Simple yet powerful

Our no-code voice app development platform is easy to master even for total beginners. Seasoned app developers, on the other hand, will continue working with the frameworks they love, augmented with visual tools to boost their productivity.

Designed for both beginners and professionals

When a user registers, he or she gets access to some of the fundamental elements of the skill-building sandbox. It consists of:

  • Boot camp training – Boot camp training is receiving an intense 7-day self-learning program that covers a wide range of topics for developing your initial skill.
  • Sandbox  Begin with this plan to enjoy an endless free trial period. Experiment with different elements of our no-code platform and use the Knowledge Base training and support tools to master new skills.
  • Can be your knowledge support – Of course, if you need to read our documentation, our self-explanatory tutorials and guides will provide you with great, hands-on experience. We’ve placed a few links in the bottom left-hand corner of your VOGO Voice Dashboard to make it easier for you to reach them.
  • Powerful connectors – Do you already have a back end system that you’d want to integrate for your voice application? It is simple to integrate with the VOGO Voice connectors. We provide integration tools for a variety of enterprise systems including Socrata, ArcGIS, CARTO, and others.

Self service platform features:

  • Interaction: For those coming from technical backgrounds, it is a tool that you are already used to, helping you to have an easy starting point. Interaction flow editors and data make up the interaction feature. Flow editors reduce the learning curve and allow designers to start with a well-known task: structure information and represent the different interaction paths. A skill may have multiple interaction pathways depending on how the skill needs to function.
  • Connectors: As previously mentioned,connectors are essential for leveraging your data to improve and enrich your customers’ experiences. Use one or more of our ready-made connectors, or collaborate with us to design a bespoke connector to meet your exact requirements.

  • Insights: Review, understand, and enhance how your users interact with your skill with the Insights tool. And that covers all the basics. Now onto the fun part: testing and deploying
  • Live Testing & Deployment: The deployment tab displays the results of deployment including the date of deployment and the service to which the skill was deployed, be it Alexa/Google Assistant. The date of deployment holds the record of when the skill was finally deployed.
