800 Genie Unveiled
Demo is one of the high profiled events which we recommend to any startup unveiling their products. Their press release describes 800Genie (http://800genie.800pbx.com) as “a personalized telephony service converging data and voice”.
Built using the patent pending technologies, 800 Genie provides a wide gamut of services including reading and replying to your mail (Gmail, Yahoo!, AOL and most service providers are supported), real-time tele-blogging, group messaging, reminders, traffic updates, directions, weather, various kinds of news including business, top stories, sports etc. Genie can also maintain your calendar and notes. Genie uses advanced speech recognition engines to match voice inputs. Besides speech, Genie can also understand touch tones.
Demo says, “This company has flipped the question of the mobile Web on its side and delivered a very useful service that isn’t so much about bringing Web sites to mobile devices as it is about accessing Web-based information services through the most ubiquitous device going: the telephone, mobile or landline. As a consumer service, 800 Genie delivers personalized, Web-based data to the phone. As an enterprise service, 800 PBX opens a world of possibilities for workgroup communications and information sharing.”
