[VoiceOps] Voicemail-to-text API Service

There's also yap (http://yapme.com/).  That's the vendor that Innovative
Systems will be using with the APmax.

Subject: [VoiceOps] Voicemail-to-text API Service

I'm interested in Voice-to-text services that offer an API.  I've looked at
a few.

     * Quicktate  -- accurate, humans, expensive: $0.015 per word retail!
     * MyCaption  -- I have no real data on them yet
     * Twilio     -- Does not offer the service as an API, just within their
                     own services; could be hacked to do so
     * VoiceCloud -- Have an API, pricing and quality unknown (haven't
                     returned call/email).
     * Tropo      -- Does not offer the service as an API, just within their
                     own services; could be hacked to do so

Is anyone using any of these or other services with great success and at
affordable rates?  Both Twilio and Tropo offer $0.005/minute to
$0.01/minute for transcription, but I don't know about the quality yet.
The cost may be enough for me to write an app that my system calls their
service and plays the message for transcription.  It's a hack, but if the
quality is good, may be worth the effort.

So what do you know?
