The Pythia Consortium Selects VoiceWeb and Loquendo Technology to Power Taxi Dispatching System

TURIN, Italy - Pythia Consortium has selected VoiceWeb to develop a taxi dispatching system leveraging Loquendo's VoxNauta™ Platform.

The Pythia taxi dispatching system enables customers to book a taxi over the phone. The dispatching system is automated and requires no human operator intervention. The Pythia TAXI dispatching system comes with a variety of additional features, such as distress call, where the call center is alerted and notified of the taxi's exact position in case drivers are in danger, location-based commercial notifications.
 
VoiceWeb provided Pythia Consortium with the VoxNauta™ Platform, on which the automated speech service was developed. VoxNauta™ is Loquendo's open, multi-lingual interactive voice application platform, which provides powerful competitive advantage by extending web services and content to the telephony world whilst building expansive reach and customer loyalty. VoiceWeb also provided the consortium with valuable support and expertise, instrumental in the development of the Pythia taxi dispatching system.

Mr. Stelios Mavromichalis, the Pythia taxi dispatching system project leader, said: "After long evaluation of the best products in the field we chose Loquendo's VoxNauta Platform for its technical superiority, stability and most importantly technical support. VoiceWeb is a valuable solution provider for this platform with considerable experience and value added support services. Just the right combination to rely on."
