Sharesight now has an Amazon Alexa Skill

For anyone with an Amazon Echo, you can now ask Alexa how your shares are doing by adding the Sharesight Alexa Skill.

The team at Sharesight love technology, so we were excited to hear from a developer who wanted to build an Alexa Skill using the Sharesight API to allow investors to check their investment portfolio performance using Amazon Alexa voice commands.

If you own an Amazon Alexa device (such as the Echo or Echo Dot) – it’s easy to add the skill to your device and connect your Sharesight account.

How to use the Sharesight Alexa Skill

To get started, you’ll need a Sharesight account (sign up for free) and to have added holdings to your portfolio. It goes without saying that you’ll also need an Amazon Alexa device.

You’ll need to visit Amazon’s Sharesight Alexa Skill page to ‘enable’ the Skill, or alternatively you can find the Skill by searching in the Alexa app for Sharesight.

When you ‘enable’ the Skill, you will be asked to link Alexa to your Sharesight account using the Sharesight API (you can revoke this access at any time from the “Account Settings” page). Once linked, you can interact with with Alexa to check your Sharesight portfolio.
