FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Mangosoft, Inc. Forms Alliance With General Voice Technologies, Inc.
File sharing and online storage service facilitates mobility and accessibility of voice recognition files
Westborough, MA - June 4, 2001: Mangosoft Inc. (Nasdaq: BB: MGOF), a leading provider of Internet-enabling
business software and services, and General Voice Technologies Inc., a pioneer in integrated voice recognition
solutions, today announced a marketing alliance that will help make voice recognition technology easier and
more accessible to users.
"Voice recognition technology will improve and streamline many facets of our lives - business, education,
entertainment, and home computing," said Brian Mead, president, of General Voice Technologies. "Combining
solutions like our Voice Model Mobility (VMM) software and Mangosoft's secure Internet file sharing and
online storage service will speed the adoption of the next generation of machine independent voice recognition
applications."
To use large vocabulary voice recognition applications, users must train their personal computers with
their particular "voice model" so that the computer can learn their specific voice parameters.
General Voice Technologies' VMM software enables users to save their personal voice model and transfer it to
other machines, thus saving hours of training new machines with the specific voice model parameters. VMM also
provides a backup of the voice model file.
Mangosoft's Mangomind file sharing and online storage service allows users to store their VMM file, which
can be up to a 100MB, on a secure Internet drive and then retrieve and transfer it to other machines where they
would like to use their voice model. Mangomind allows users to access their files from anywhere in the world
and eliminates the need for costly removable media devices, such as zip drives.
According to TMA Associates, the demand for voice-activated products is expected to reach $36 billion by 2003.
"General Voice is at the forefront of some very exciting technology and we are thrilled to be a part of
this rapidly expanding market," said Dale Vincent, CEO of Mangosoft. "This alliance further highlights the
immense value Mangomind provides to users, allowing them to immediately access essential files of any size
no matter where they are in the world."
