Abstract

A multi-assistant speech-processing system that centrally determines multiple execution plans to respond to a user input. A central component determines whether a particular input should be processed using a requested assistant or a different assistant or should be terminated. Assistant handoff may be determined based on system policies as well as user input-specific data. A ranked list of execution options may be supplemented by augmented data corresponding to messages to a user. The system may attempt to execute plans in the ranked order until a plan succeeds.
