Telecom Services Firm Talk-out Selects Mobivox|PL To Power Market Expansion

Voice-Activated Platform Drives Talk-Out’s Growth, New Services

MONTREAL, Jan. 27, 2009 – Mobivox today announced that Talk-Out, a business and consumer voice-services company, has chosen the powerful Mobivox|PL voice-activated mobile services platform as the engine for its growth and global expansion.

Talk-Out’s Mobivox-powered services will be available to Canadian consumers the second week of February and to U.S.-based consumers in late March. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

“In Mobivox, we found a partner whose platform offers the turnkey, full-featured network management capabilities necessary to allow us to concentrate on expanding throughout North America and globally,” said Talk-Out President and CEO David J.F. Chin.

Patrick Mailloux, Talk-Out’s Vice President of IT Development, added: “Mobivox|PL offers the value-added services and competitive edge we need to enhance and monetize the service line we offer businesses and consumers through our fast-growing network of independent representatives and resellers. This solution affords us a great deal of flexibility and quality, enabling us to expand both our service line and our reach around the world.”

Mailloux said Talk-Out had replaced its former platform and network partner with Mobivox|PL. Talk-Out will initially deploy the suite of voice-activated Mobivox|PL services in English and French, and eventually in Spanish.

Mobivox CEO Peter Diedrich said the partnership with Talk-Out affirms Mobivox’s 2008 change in strategic direction to focus on offering its patent-pending Mobivox|PL platform to the service-provider market.

“For us, it’s satisfying validation when a company like Talk-Out, a retail provider with global ambitions that needs infrastructure, comes to us and we get them up and running within 30 days,” Diedrich said. “It shows how nimble and flexible we can be, especially in creating and tailoring their go-to-market retail offers.”

Mobivox|PL enables partners to deploy and monetize voice-activated person-to-person and person-to-group communications services. For all Mobivox services – including its inbound and outbound mobile VoIP and value added services (VAS) offerings – end users simply speak names or commands to initiate, manage and control voice-based communications.

No other mobile voice-services platform has the feature richness or flexibility of Mobivox|PL. The platform’s open application programming interface easily enables “mashups” with other voice services and third party applications. Furthermore, its communications infrastructure is network-agnostic, meaning partners anywhere in the world can take advantage of it to deliver value-added voice-activated services to their users.

Mobivox services are also available to consumers at www.mobivox.com.
