GotVoice, Inc. the voice-to-text transformation company, and MetaSwitch, a leading vendor of
next-generation carrier switching and application solutions, today announced a partnership to
provide MetaSwitch customers with high quality transformations of voicemails into text.
Built on GotVoice's patented technologies, the Voicemail-to-Text service is available
immediately for MetaSwitch customers, enabling end-users to quickly scan and digest their
voicemail easily from email on their computer or mobile phone handset. As part of the
partnership, MetaSwitch customers are able to transparently integrate GotVoice's technology
into their existing brands, increasing their ARPU quickly and achieving differentiation
without capital outlays or infrastructure changes.
"The ability to read voicemail quickly has proven invaluable to customers,
saving them time and improving their productivity," said Curt Blake, CEO of GotVoice.
"Our collaboration with MetaSwitch and their service provider customers is a natural
extension of the MetaSphere applications suite and will help GotVoice bring its technology
to new audiences."
GotVoice's patented and scalable technology platform processes MetaSphere voicemails
and transforms the messages into text with unparalleled accuracy and speed. Having already
converted millions of MetaSphere generated voicemails, the service enables users to quickly
scan messages in email and immediately understand them at a glance - a compelling value-add
service for consumers of MetaSphere voicemails.
"Our partners have come to expect technology innovation and leadership from MetaSwitch,"
said Andrew Randall, Vice President of Marketing at MetaSwitch. "Our partnership with
GotVoice solidifies this stance and continues our commitment to next-generation solutions for
our customers."
