Abstract

Coordinating processing of audio queries is provided. A system receives a query. The system provides the query to a first digital assistant component and a second digital assistant component for processing. The system receives a first response to the query from the first digital assistant component, and a second response to the query from the second digital assistant component. The first digital assistant component can be authorized to access a database the second digital assistant component is prohibited from accessing. The system determines, based on a ranking decision function, to select the second response to the query from the second digital assistant component. The system provides, responsive to the selection, the second response from the second digital assistant to a computing device.
