iotum Signs Deal with AOL’s AIM
Ottawa-based iotum announced today it is one of three APIs (call personalization, device enablement and call management) selected to be part of AOL’s new Open AIM Phoneline program. The deal with AOL is a huge coup for Ottawa-based iotum, which has been battling away to find a market/customers for its relevance engine that intelligently assesses telephone calls and delivers them to most appropriate device on any network. iotum CEO Alec Saunders said his company is one of the AOL’s primary partners in the AIM developers program. “We’re in the storefront, and part of their initial announcement,” he said. “iotum engineers have also helped with the specification of the AIM Phoneline call control APIs, as we mutually determined the best to integrate iotum, and other products needing call control capabilities with AIM Phoneline. Another Canadian angle to the AIM development program is AOL’s engineering team is located in Halifax, N.S. Now, all iotum needs is a little venture capital.
