voice robots Chooses teliSpeech, telisma's Speech Recognition Software for Its Voice Portal Platform

PARIS and HEIDELBERG - voice robots and telisma announce the conclusion of a worldwide retailer agreement.

voice robots chose to integrate teliSpeech - telisma's latest networked speech recognition technology - in its IVR platform robot 5 to increase its capabilities and give customers a wider choice of high-quality speech recognition.

Graham Lewis, voice robots CEO said, "Our overall impression of teliSpeech is very good. The integration of teliSpeech was very simple, fast and smooth. Our benchmarking with other ASR engines showed state-of-the-art recognition rates in German, as well as outstanding performance in grammar compilation, especially with regard to very large grammars.

"Such performance will in fact be key to the development of any future joint applications planned with teliSpeech in the SMB market.

"It is exactly what the market has needed for some time. Until now there has been very little choice in recognition engines for top end applications, especially in German. teliSpeech changes all that - customers now have greater choice, which can only be good for the market in the long term."
