Adhearsion is...

Adhearsion is a new way to write voice-enabled applications. It's not just an API or library — it's a fully-featured framework, the first of its kind, designed for maximal code reuse and intuitiveness. The name "Adhearsion" is a combination of "adhesion" and "hear" because Adhearsion shines best when integrating technologies with voice.

It's modern

Adhearsion uses the high-level Ruby programming language and has a comprehensive regression test suite. In the age of the social web, what other technologies are more social than voice? Adhearsion aims to help merge this so-called "Web 2.0" world with the previously untamable telephony world.

It's intuitive

Voice applications don't have to be hard. Adhearsion abstracts much of the complicated telephony domain, allowing you to focus on what's really important: the business domain. Take a look at the Examples to see what we mean.

It's open-source

We take open-source software seriously. The telecom industry, above all, needs fresh innovative talent and Adhearsion's here to foster it. This is one of the final major frontiers for open-source to truly make a transformative impact and now is an exciting time to be a part of it.

We think it's fun

Many hackers' faces light up the first time they run code which makes the cell phone in their pocket ring. Whether you're a veteran telephony engineer or a web developer wanting a new experiment to do over the weekend, we think Adhearsion is enough of a departure from classical telephony to tickle your fancy.

We improve the way you communicate

The Adhearsion team offers consulting services for two classes of business needs:

  • Companies wanting custom, integrated, and effective communication solutions.
  • New telephony-based tech startups

The communication technology industry is rapidly evolving and it's our job to stay on top of it. Using our expertise will help you develop the most effective, customized solution for your specific business needs.

If you have an existing system, regardless of vendor, we can help you improve it. If you ground-up overhaul of the technologies that help you communicate, we'll work with you to tailor a system with the right balance of simplicity and features.
