Amazon has stepped into the DIY home security arena with Alexa Emergency Assist, a service that leverages the company's Alexa smart speakers to listen for signs of distress in your home, and then connect you with emergency services.

If you're thinking of signing up for Alexa Emergency Assist, here's everything you need to know about the service.
