About Interoperable Conversational Assistants

 

The Open Voice Network Interoperability Initiative aims to enable voice and conversational AI to work like the web. We envision a future where users can freely find and use any conversational assistant and language model that addresses their goals, just as they do now with web pages.

Our path toward achieving this goal is to define, develop, and promote standards—beginning with an open, universal application programming interface (API)—which will enable any conversational assistant that follows the standards to freely interoperate with other standards-using assistants and connect, communicate, and transfer content and control across assistants, platforms, and language models.
