The folks at Lypp formerly Gaboogie have introduced an API for their telephony service. With this API, you can create conferences on the fly for your mashup. An initial review of the API is impressive. It’s the first true REST style API for VoIP deployment that we’ve seen. Erik Lagerway,founder of Lypp, is recognized as one of the most creative minds in next generation telephony so it will be interesting to watch his company’s progress. Great technologists, a real revenue model, and a bit of investment money can certainly be combined to make a terrific business.
As we have stated over and over, we believe these API’s will be identified by enterprises within specific vertical industries ( or by device!) as the most logical and relevant tools for an industry. So, our advice to any API provider is to quickly find ways to get deeply integrated within a couple of industries. In time, there will be many conference calling APIS. Will Lypp be the conference calling API for the Blackberry community? Will this allow Lypp to then get integrated deeply into the financial services industry?
Regardless, Lypp has made a great start.
