[asterisk-biz] Fw: Speech Recognition Engine; Special $25/port Offer

Fri Dec 25 05:00:38 CST 2009

Kashif,

Like voicexml is standard for IVR so is mrcp standard that's created  
for speech recognition data inter operability, 90% of commecial speech  
engines are mrcp compliant.

Asterisk follows none of these standard inbuilt, n i6net guys r making  
handsome money off their connector :), am I giving you enough hints by  
now?

Thanks & Regards,
