Voxpilot and Kirusa to Showcase Kirusa Voice SMS Multimodal Application
NEW YORK, NY -- -- 09/13/2004 -- SpeechTEK 2004 Conference -- Kirusa, the world's leading provider of multimodal solutions, and Voxpilot, leading provider of carrier-grade IN and VoiceXML solutions, will demonstrate the patent pending Kirusa Voice SMS (KV.SMS(SM)) multimodal application, deployed on Voxpilot's fully VoiceXML 2.0 compliant Open Media Platform, in Voxpilot's Booth #210 at this year's SpeechTEK Conference in New York.
The KV.SMS(SM) application, a combination of the two most popular mobile communication technologies available today, has been successfully tested in pilot projects by major European carriers. The application provides captivating features such as RingFree(SM) voice messaging, voice reply to text messaging, and text reply to voice messaging, greatly enhancing the reach of SMS messaging to a wider population of mobile users. Kirusa Voice SMS is useful in a wide variety of consumer and business situations, and does not require any network upgrades. Carriers are thus able to offer this dynamic service to drive increased data and voice revenue by leveraging their existing wireless network infrastructure.
"We are extremely happy that Kirusa is showcasing the unique KV.SMS application in Voxpilot's booth during SpeechTEK," says Peter Olyarchuk, VP Sales & Business Development US. "Following the successful integration of Kirusa's multimodal engine with Voxpilot's media platform, we can now support the delivery of information by visual and voice interfaces in the same application. The Kirusa Voice SMS application helps drive revenue for our carrier customers on all 2G, 2.5G, and 3G networks."
"Voxpilot's Media Platform is a high quality VoiceXML platform with proven scalability, stability and robustness," noted Ewald Anderl, CTO and Vice President of Kirusa. "Our partnership with Voxpilot allows us to offer the KV.SMS application as a packaged solution for deployment, as well as an outsourced solution for quick trials in Europe and North America, thereby accelerating revenue generation for our customers."
Representatives of both companies will be guiding visitors through their portfolio of solutions for carriers and enterprises. For further information, or to arrange a demonstration at SpeechTEK, please contact Damon Miller from Kirusa (dmiller@kirusa.com) or Peter Olyarchuk (pro@voxpilot.com) from Voxpilot.
