To further help developers rapidly obtain Amazon certification and smoothly enter the overseas smart voice system, Tuya not only helps developers obtain Works with Alexa (WWA) official certification. The Company has also launched an Amazon Alexa Built-in (ABI) testing and certification service that shortens the ABI certification cycle from over 12 weeks to around six weeks.
