Amazon just launched a Skype competitor! 👀
This newsletter was brought to you byElevenLabsAmazon just launched a Skype competitor! 👀
In its latest quest for world domination, Amazon just launched a video conferencing app that's built on top of AWS!
Amazon Chime is available on Mac, PC, Android, and iOS right out of the gate, and goes into a crowded space that includes Skype, Hangouts, and startups like Zoom (which raised $100M from Sequoia in January).
Amazon says they built Chime to solve the biggest recurring pain-point of their (AWS) enterprise customers: video conferencing. So, they made Chime drop-dead easy to use for calls, chats, group conferences, screen shares, and more.

So we’re just… talking to software now?
ElevenLabs has been the go-to for voice for a while. Now they've turned that expertise into agents that actually get things done. You set one up, it talks like a real person, listens, responds, and helps handle the task — support calls, bookings, whatever the job is. Not a demo, not a "press 1 for sales" situation. It's ready to deploy. Feels like one of those shifts where the interface quietly changes. Less typing, less clicking, more just saying what needs to happen and letting it play out.
