Since we initially launched Tropo back in 2009, we’ve always held the view that mobile carriers hold a unique position in the developer ecosystem.   Beyond the obvious massive technology infrastructure that carriers employ that makes it so Grandma can easily pick up the phone and call you to say “happy birthday”, carriers also have other advantages like millions of subscribers, frictionless billing, and strong partnerships with mobile device manufacturers.

Now, I know what you’re saying…”But, Diggz, I want my app exposed to millions of subscribers!  I want to offer my customers frictionless billing!  I need access to unique features on the latest mobile devices!”

Well, wait no longer, my friend!

Today we’re pleased to announce a new unique partnership with Deutsche Telekom’s Developer Garden with the launch of the Telekom Tropo API beta at DeveloperGarden.com.  For the first time, new and existing Developer Garden and Tropo developers will have access to both the full suite of Developer Garden API’s and Tropo’s simple-yet-powerful voice and SMS API’s including voice recognition, text-to-speech, conference calling and call recording.

This means that in the coming months, Tropo developers in Europe and around the globe will have access to a new breed of carrier network features; complete with rich media and deep device integration.  Put on your peril-sensitive sunglasses, geeks…this is just the beginning!

Existing and new developers can immediately register for the Tropo Telekom API Beta here:  Tropo Telekom API Beta
