  Uhhh.... no? They both came out approximately at the same time, 2014-2015. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Echo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Echo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Dash https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Dash

    That's when the Echo device came out, was it able to order products from release? Scrolling through functionality on wikipedia [0] almost makes it sound as though it doesn't even do that now. There's just a reference to a 2019 meeting about people not using it to order products. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Alexa https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Alexa

    Dash came out well before alexa and several years iirc before alexa ordering. Why do I know? I did on dash reviews a few months before dash went live (hardware was in warehouses waiting to ship). 8 months later I moved to a different team and 6 months after that my old team all left what they were doing and started building ordering via alexa.
