I'm not sure what the benefit of this is over the alexa voice service api: https://developer.amazon.com/public/solutions/alexa/alexa-voice-service/content/avs-api-overview https://developer.amazon.com/public/solutions/alexa/alexa-vo... Does anyone know how this differs from alexa voice services? Does this allow you to get away from the stilted "example phrases" of the alexa api and just get a transcript? Judging from the inclusion of "intents" on the faq, it looks like the "example phrase" interface will still be required: https://aws.amazon.com/lex/faqs/ https://aws.amazon.com/lex/faqs/

You need intents so whatever code is running Lex knows to do something. Especially for a conversation string. If you want text to speech or text to text? You'd make a polly utility, or do something like "open dictate" and then just capture everything said after. That being said the duration is limited too.
