babyTEL's Voice API - Connecting Your Web Application Users Through Voice
By Babytel, PRNESunday, May 2, 2010
SAN FRANCISCO and MONTREAL, May 3, 2010 - babyTEL Inc., leader in Social Voice, announced the private beta launch
of its Social Telephone Voice API at Web 2.0 Expo (Booth 415).
When web application developers add the Telephone Voice API
(developers.babytel.net) functionality to their web apps, their users
can talk, conference, IM and send individual and group voice messages. "Voice
makes great web apps even better and will increase stickiness and user
engagement," said Stephen Dorsey, babyTEL's CEO.
Web application developers will be amazed how easy it is to integrate fun
and sophisticated voice features into their web apps. The API works with the
user relationships that developers have already defined to set rules on who
users can call or send voice messages to, what information gets shared
between users, and how the phone book and call history is displayed. And the
voice functionality is provided by babyTEL's proven, Telco-grade VoIP
service.
The API offers all of these services through babyTEL's proprietary
softphone that launches right from the web with no download or install
required. The phone comes pre-populated with a user's friends, as defined by
the developer, and works on Mac, Windows and Linux.
Jonathan Schacter, babyTEL's Vice President & CFO added that "our API
partners will also have access to hot new revenue opportunities include sale
of enhanced telephone features and virtual products like phone skins and
ringtones."
