Vocre [voh-krey], launched today at TechCrunch Battlefield among 30 of the brightest start-ups vying for coveted attention from Silicon Valleys elite. Unique among the contenders, Vocre's translation app for iPhone and iPod touch, which allows users to communicate instantly with anybody from anywhere, is now available on the App Store. Whether its Mandarin or Spanish, Vocre brings the world together by removing the language barrier.
What was once the focus of sci-fi fantasy (the Communicator prop on 'Star Trek', or the Babelfish from 'The Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy'), today we have made reality with this new technology, said Andrew Lauder, Founder and CEO of myLanguage, Inc. As the demand for globalization becomes more commonplace, the need for accurate and instant translation is crucial to compete, or even just to connect with others while traveling abroad. Vocre empowers both.
Vocre is the latest product from myLanguage, which boasts a user base in excess of 1.5 million users and has regularly been featured as the premiere language translation solution on the Apple App store.
Vocre demonstrates the power of the Nuance Mobile Developer Program and the Dragon Mobile SDK, allowing developers to quickly integrate a broad number of languages, and get a unique translation app out into the marketplace, said Matt Revis, vice president of product marketing and management, Nuance Mobile (NASDAQ: NUAN).
At launch, Vocre supports the following languages with many more on the horizon:
