In the last few months, Google Assistant has seen a decisive increase in the number of actions it is able to carry out, reaching over 4,250 in the United States.
The solution developed by the Mountain View giant, however, is still very far from that of Amazon : at the end of 2018, in fact, Alexa could already boast over 56,750 Skills .
