Spoken teams with Microsoft to offer transcribed text voicemail service

The company Spoken has announced its plans to team with Microsoft in order to offer audio to text transcriptions of voicemails. This service will be offered to enterprise customers and will come as an enhanced option on the new Microsoft Exchange Server 2010.

The service is called GotVoice and will automatically convert your audio voicemails to text. Any type of third party voicemail service will be compatible with the program. Options to receive the text transcriptions will include email attachments, text messages sent to your mobile or in the inbox of your GotVoice account. The voicemails will be password protected in order to secure your privacy. You will have the ability to adjust your settings through a secure server on the GotVoice website.

The GotVoice program is being marketed as a cheaper and more technologically advanced form of voicemail transcription. Many programs have a live person transcribe voicemails into text. Spoken’s GotVoice will instead use software as well as a live person for troubleshooting. You don’t need Microsoft Exchange Server to use the service. Business and individual accounts can be opened directly through the site.
