MyVox Gives Mobile Developers a Voice (Literally) and Revenue Model
New York, NY - March 11, 2008 – VoodooVox today announced the release of MyVox, a free service that enables mobile developers to easily incorporate voice into their applications and Web widgets. Through the MyVox API, any phone can now function as a mic, giving mobile developers the ability to enhance any Web application imaginable with the user's voice. Additionally, VoodooVox also provides a new revenue stream through the In-Call Network, its patent-pending audio advertising network.
"Voice represents a new frontier in the Web experience," said J. Scott Hamilton, President and CEO of VoodooVox. "The MyVox API handles the complexities of the telephony component by capturing the voice of the caller, empowering developers to easily create the next generation of voice-enhanced applications and services. We fully expect MyVox to lead to a proliferation of voice mashup innovation."
The initial list of MyVox powered applications is available at www.myvox.com.
More than just a voice, MyVox also gives mobile developers a new revenue stream. All MyVox call volume passes through the VoodooVox In-Call Network Exchange (ICNx), an audio ad network comprised of over 500 call publishers. The VoodooVox ICNx inserts targeted ad-supported media directly into the call stream, sharing revenue with its call publishers.
To spark development of voice-enabled applications, VoodooVox is promoting the MyVox Developer Challenge, which promises up to $75,000 in prize money for innovative and popular applications. Full details can be found at www.myvox.com.
