Amazon says ‘hundreds of thousands’ now have access to Alexa Plus.
An Amazon spokesperson gave the figure to Reuters, adding, “...of course, some are employees and their families, but the overwhelming majority are customers that requested early access.”
However, Reuters says it found no evidence of Alexa Plus in the wild when searching “dozens of news sites” and social media.
Update May 17th: Amazon Spokesperson Eric Sveum emailed this statement to The Verge:
It’s simply wrong to say that Alexa+ isn’t available to customers—that assertion is false. Hundreds of thousands of customers have access to Alexa+ and we’re constantly inviting more customers that have requested Early Access.
