“The technology Graphiq has developed to connect the dots between billions of pieces of information could be valuable to Amazon as it tries to make Alexa smarter. Akin to Siri on the iPhone, Alexa answers queries about the weather, sports and other topics on devices such as Amazon's Echo speaker.

Amazon also gave Graphiq access to a database about books to put its technology to the test, according to a source.”
