Nuance challenges SpinVox in voicemail-to-text

↑ top

Nuance Communications, Inc., announced today at CTIA Wireless 2008 the "Nuance Voicemail to Text". Offered via wireless carriers, transcribed messages are sent to users as SMS or email messages.

Move over, SpinVox, a big dog is headed for your porch..

“Converting voicemail to text is a powerful and simple concept. But implementing a highly scalable semi-automated service is far more complex and requires highly accurate speech recognition – technology that takes decades to develop,” said Steve Chambers, president, mobile and consumer services division, Nuance. “The Nuance Voicemail to Text Service integrates speech technology with over 3,000 Nuance transcriptionists, hosted in a Nuance-owned facility, with proven security, scalability, and reliability.”

Looks like SpinVox is about to get a real run for the money!
