E-mail is the killer app on the internet, and it’s just beginning to permeate the mobile device environment. SMS messaging is already exploding with over 1 trillion SMS messages sent in 2006. But creating those messages is increasingly challenging. That’s where the power of speech recognition and advanced text input from Nuance can bring out the full power of mobile messaging.

With its advanced text input solutions (T9 text input and XT9 smart input), Nuance provides complementary input modalities that bypasses the basic limitations of the phone keypad and allow simplified entry of text through single tap on the phone keyboard. T9 is shipped in over 2 billion devices and used on a regular basis by over 1 billion people.

With speech recognition, you can create SMS, email and instant messages on a mobile device, simply by speaking, and have your speech transcribed instantly.

However, that’s only half the equation. Nuance makes messaging truly powerful by coupling its dictation software with its RealSpeak Mobile text to speech (TTS) engine, enabling users to message by simply speaking it or listening to it.

For carriers and mobile application developers, the Nuance Mobile Speech Platform provides access to Nuance’s award winning Dragon NaturallySpeaking technology, providing mobile device users with large vocabulary, continuous, network based speech recognition that allows them to dictate highly accurate SMS and e-mail messages in a natural, continuous speaking style.

With the Nuance Mobile Speech Platform, Nuance’s Professional Services group, with expertise in speech science, user interface design, and application development, can work with your organization to build the ideal mobile messaging application.
