Systems and methods for providing supplemental information with a response to a command are provided herein. In some embodiments, audio data representing a spoken command may be received by a cloud-based information system. A response to the command may be retrieved from a category related to the context of the command. A supplemental information database may also be provided that is pre-populated with supplemental information related to an individual having a registered account on the cloud-based information system. In response to retrieving the response to the command, supplemental information may be selected from the supplemental information database to be appended to the response to the command. A message may then be generated including the response and the supplemental information appended thereto, which in turn may be converted into audio data representing the message, which may be sent to a voice-controlled electronic device of the individual.

Systems and methods for providing supplemental information with a response to a command

A system incorporating configurable keywords. The system can detect a keyword in audio data and execute one function for the keyword if a first application is operating, but a second function for the keyword if a second function is operating. Each keyword may be associated with multiple different functions. If a keyword is recognized during keyword detection, a function associated with that keyword is determined based on another application running on the system. Thus detection of a same keyword may result in a different function based on system context.
