The Speech Engine, LumenVox’s core speech recognition software, works with the Avaya (News - Alert) Voice Portal, a software platform that supports a SOA and provides a faster, easier way to speech enable Web services across highly distributed enterprises.  The Avaya development community is thus able to deploy highly accurate and competitively priced speech technology solutions using LumenVox technology.

 

The Avaya DeveloperConnection (News - Alert) program aims to promote the development, compliance-testing and co-marketing of innovative third-party products that are compatible with standards-based Avaya solutions.  Organizations that are part of this program boast expertise in a broad range of technologies such as IP telephony, contact centers and mobility applications.  Members help companies extend the value of multi-vendor networks and transform voice into an intelligent business application that delivers true value to the bottom line.

 

“LumenVox’s membership in Avaya’s developer community will provide our joint customers with integrated speech technology for the Avaya Voice Portal,” said Edward Miller, president of LumenVox in a statement. “Building on Avaya resources and working more closely with the company to deliver compliance-tested technology to the market, we are able to speed up time to deployment so businesses can quickly realize the benefit of an Avaya and LumenVox solution.”

 

Eric Rossman, vice president, developer relations and technical alliances, Avaya said that with the involvement of companies like LumenVox, Avaya’s developer community has become a catalyst for rapid innovation, creating multivendor applications that help enterprises around the world unleash powerful new possibilities for operating more efficiently and effectively.
