As a platform, Ribbit has no visible competition. In contrast to standard “Voice 2.0” solutions, which have largely chosen to deploy “featurebased products”, Ribbit’s approach is to unleash the creativity of thousands of web developers by allowing them to quickly add telephony to their web properties and applications.
Product Description
Ribbit, the first phone company to emerge from Silicon Valley, has built an open platform for the creation of web-telephony solutions as well as a groundbreaking web application that merges your mobile phone with your online life. The application lets you make and receive multi-protocol calls via Flash-based phones, provides speech-to-text message transcriptions and provides an open message management environment - all built using Ribbit’s open APIs.
Market Opportunity
Using Ribbit’s tools, developers can create next-generation telephony solutions and distribute them through Ribbit’s online showcase. By providing the development tools, the infrastructure and a “shared-revenue” marketplace, Ribbit, the developer and consumers all benefit. The size of the opportunity is limited only by developer creativity and innovation
