Additionally, Mobivox brings a very deep team of speech developers that combined bring more than 100 years of expertise. The Mobivox Voice User Interface (VUI), available in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese languages, is used by partners around the world.

Patel, who co-founded Sabse in 2007 and holds many patents himself, views the Mobivox VUI as the superior platform to VoiceXML and CCXML. He added “Our carrier partners have already deployed Sabse’s TAAS platform and demonstrated repeated interest in bringing to market VUI-powered services.”
