We announced on Adobe's blog that Adobe acquired a free invitation-based service "Sayspring" that allows you to build applications for Google Assistant and Alexa without coding. Although Adobe has not announced about the purchase price etc, Sayspring's development team seems to participate in Adobe.

This can be done by using artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning or deep learning so as to "speed up monotonous and time-consuming work", "create new business opportunities through data analysis", "provide a personalized customer experience" It is marked as if you do.
