Prosodie Interactive, a market leader in

Interactive Voice Response and enhanced services technology, today announced the staged integration of voice portal, speech recognition and voice XML technology acquired during its recent acquisition of TelSurf Networks Inc. into its enhanced communications services.

TelSurf Networks, Inc., a leading provider of voice-activated solutions, was acquired by Prosodie Interactive earlier this year. The California-based company provides voice technology that is fully network based and built to carrier grade specifications.

"Prosodie Interactive is in business to simplify the complex world of communications for our customers," said Dana Love, Executive Vice President of worldwide messaging for Prosodie Interactive. "Providing our subscribers the ability to use their voice, a much more natural interface than a telephone keypad, to get information and messages, is a significant step in empowering our subscribers to choose how the enhanced communications services can work best for them."

The addition of TelSurf's voice portal technology provides a natural voice interface to Prosodie's unified communications system, enabling voice activated dialing, and a voice interface for call management, personal information management, and account administration functions. The integration of speech recognition services enables more complex features without having to rely on a telephone keypad. In addition, TelSurf's voice XML technology brings a standard, open voice applications development scripting language to the Prosodie Interactive platform, allowing customers to create their own applications for the Prosodie unified communications platform.

"Combining our solutions with TelSurf technology allows us to offer new and diverse information to subscribers, and lets the subscriber better manage what information they access and how they hear it," added Love. Prosodie Interactive intends to further enhance the unified communications user experience by introducing voice portal content, such as news and stock quotes, customized for the user.
