SimulScribe

edit

SimulScribe operates PhoneTag, a voice to text service. To be precise, PhoneTag converts your voicemail into text messages and then sends them directly to your mobile phone, Blackberry, and/or your email account.

Users are able to quickly see who has called and what they said, whether they are sitting in a business meeting or traveling on the road. The user’s voicemail functionality does not change; it can still be listened to and stored for later use. PhoneTag works with all Major U.S. carriers and networks including: AT&T, Alltell, Sprint, Skype, T-Mobile, Verizon, and Virgin.

Check out PhoneTag’s bold marketing moves (spamming) on TechCrunch readers.

Competitors include SpinVox, Jott, and Pinger.
