Voxeo and Skype

Voxeo and Skype have partnered to connect Voxeo's 24,000+ developers, customers, and partners with 52,000,000+ Skype callers.

You can now create and test your own enhanced voice applications via Skype and Voxeo for free, and Voxeo now also provides commercial hosting and revenue sharing options for any Skype voice applications you create.

For more infomation about the partnership, read our Voxeo and Skype Partnership press release.

Take advantage of the Voxeo Evolution Skype Developer program

You can now use the Skype client to call applications on the Voxeo Evolution Hosted IVR platform. Evolution is a comprehensive developer program that provides access to Voxeo's hosted VoiceXML, CCXML, and CallXML voice application platforms, multi-language voice recognition and voice synthesis, call recording, call conferencing, dozens of tutorials, extensive documentation, and more that you can use to build applications and content for Skype users.

The Voxeo Evolution Skype Developer program is absolutely free

Unlike other companies that charge developers, our developer programs are absolutely free - including 500 minutes per month of application hosting and unlimited free technical support. We're here to help you build Skype applications, not to hinder you with unecessary charges.

Launch your Skype application using Voxeo production IVR Hosting

When your application is finished and you need more than 500 minutes per month of access, you can turn to Voxeo to provide reliable production-hosting for your new Skype applications. Voxeo's production hosting plans work like cellular plans. You can either sign up for a contract with a monthly price and bundled minutes, or purchase minutes on a pre-paid basis. For more information, just contact us.

Collect revenue from Skype Callers via their Skype Credit accounts

The Skype partnership also enables shared revenue streams for calls to Voxeo hosted applications. You define how much you want Skype callers to pay when accessing your applications, and Skype and Voxeo collect payments and deliver the funds to you.
