twiliobot is Robot extension for Google Wave demonstrating how to initiate calls from within a wave to normal cell phones or landlines using the Twilio phone API. The project is still in development and there are still several limitations.
You integrate the Google Wave API with the Twilio phone API. While this particular project only implements click-to-call inside of Google Wave, one could think of many of interesting ways to integrate Google Wave and Twilio:
- Add call recording and transcription of all click-to-call initiated calls that can are appended to the wave
- Use Twilio to record voicemail messages and create a new wave for each message containing the audio and a speech-to-text transcription of the voicemail. Combining such an application with conditional call forwarding on your GSM mobile phone you could say goodbye to traditional voicemail and use Google Wave to manage all your messaging.
- Use Google Wave to set a status message that is heard by caller contacting your business. You could create a robot that monitors the last blip in a wave and reads the text of that blip to anyone who calls a business phone powered by Twilio.
