"Life Bot solves this by bringing the most-used features under one voice app."

The most used features are able to be asked to Alexa directly.

Are you helping users that may not want to set up IFTTT triggers for actions?

You're right that Alexa does a lot of these features natively, but what we're trying to do is make each one better for users.

For example with reminders, we allow users to get notified of the reminders they set where ever they are via SMS. Or for news we give users the option of texting the full article to their phone.

Right now we're starting with simple productivity features, but going forward we want to make it easier for Alexa users to interact with other third party services without having to enable a whole bunch of different Skills.

IFTTT is a great service but a lot of Alexa users aren't familiar with it.

Why SMS over the calendar or other reminder features that are built into every smartphone?
