I predicted many times that a new trend with VoIP services would have been the ability to solve specific problems for the final users. This can lead to both services that are free for users or that users are willing to pay for. In any case, there are many ways to monetize them, directly or indirectly and the value for customers could be very high.
Jajah knows this very well and yesterday announced two brand new services, Jajah Babel and Jajah Concierge.
The former is an English to Mandarin translator (more languages will be available soon), just in time for the Olympic games. You just need to dial a number and speak out the word you want to translate. Straightforward. This service is available in U.S., China, UK and Australia.
The latter, offered in partnership with Mobivox, is a personal assistant. You simply dial a local number and ask your personal concierge to do something for you, like initiating phone calls, sending a text message or establishing conference calls, all with voice commands and hands free.
Good job guys!
