Our number one mission at Fire TV is getting you to what you want to watch—fast. Today's launch builds on that mission with this new AI-powered feature. Just describe a movie scene like you would to a friend, and Alexa+ will jump directly to that specific moment—no more searching required. This feature joins Fire TV's growing suite of AI capabilities, enhancing personalized recommendations based on customers' viewing preferences and subscriptions, while helping them discover content they want to watch even faster.
How does the new find a scene feature work on Fire TV?
Just ask Alexa+ to jump to the movie scene you have in mind, and Fire TV will start playing that scene on Prime Video. You can describe the scene to Alexa by mentioning details like the actor or character’s name, or a memorable quote. A few examples of things you can try:
- “Jump to the card scene in Love Actually”
- “Jump to the scene in Red One where Santa flies over the city”
- “Jump to the scene where Deloris Jordan says ‘a shoe is just a shoe until my son steps into it’”
- “Jump to the scene when John McClane says ‘come out to the coast, we’ll get together, have a few laughs’”
- “Jump to the scene where Joshua asks, ‘shall we play a game?’”
- “Jump to the Ozdust ballroom scene in Wicked with Glinda”
- “Jump to the scene in Mamma Mia where Sophie sings ‘Honey Honey’”
- “Jump to the boulder chase scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark”
This new capability harnesses the intelligence of AI to seamlessly work across a variety of Amazon services. Alexa+ can identify the movie you’re talking about even when you don’t mention the title, and then uses visual understanding and movie captions, processed through Prime Video’s X-Ray, to understand the characters, plot, and action happening in any given scene to determine the specific moment a customer wants to watch on their Fire TV—and does it in seconds. Like Alexa+, this feature is built on Amazon Bedrock and utilizes a variety of large language models, including Amazon Nova and Anthropic Claude.
What movies can I use the scene jump feature with on Fire TV?
