SAN FRANCISCO, CA and ATLANTA, GA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/26/13 -- TokBox, a Telefónica Digital company, today launched a series of world-first capabilities, extending WebRTC into an enterprise-grade technology for video communication applications for the first time.

In the opening keynote address, TokBox CEO Ian Small unveiled a number of extensions to its OpenTok Video Platform:

• Cloud Raptor SDK: adds management capabilities for any OpenTok application, letting developers create a centralized controller that can listen to, query and respond to messages and events flowing through the application;
• OpenTok For Customer Service: provides pre-configured tools that make it faster and easier to implement face-to-face video chat for customer service applications; and
• Advanced quality controls: OpenTok now dynamically shapes audio and video traffic to maximize the experience for every participant in a multi-point conversation.

TokBox's OpenTok Platform allows the development and management of commercial face-to-face applications, embeddable in any website or service. Launched as a Flash-based platform in 2010, OpenTok has pioneered the use of WebRTC in commercial applications, launching the first WebRTC face-to-face video platform in 2012 and Mantis, a cloud-based infrastructure enabling multi-party conversations, earlier this year.

The launch of the Cloud Raptor SDK adds advanced management capabilities to the OpenTok platform. Cloud Raptor enables developers to tap into the messages and events flowing through the OpenTok platform, making it possible to build more intelligent communications applications. Developers and application managers can now create a centralized controller for their apps, enabling simplified call management, advanced business logic, access to analytics and more.

OpenTok for Customer Service (OTCS), also introduced at WebRTC Expo today, is a set of tools that make it faster and easier to implement face-to-face video chat for customer service applications. Whether your service model is based on a traditional call center, scheduled appointments, or "call my rep" functionality, OTCS streamlines adding video to online and mobile customer service offerings. OTCS can be applied to pre-sales customer assistance, post-sales customer support, expert consultation and financial services use cases, among others.

TokBox today also launched advanced quality controls as an extension of OpenTok's Mantis infrastructure. Central to the additions are the inclusion of bandwidth controls that enable high quality multi-party conversations regardless of network conditions or device used. This continues the evolution of WebRTC from its native peer-to-peer configuration to a scalable, quality multi-party experience.

Ian Small, TokBox CEO: "Today we released the building blocks that make WebRTC an enterprise-grade platform for developing commercial face-to-face video applications. Companies looking to use face to face communications as part of their offering, whether for customer service like XX or as part of fan engagement like MLB.com, can now do so simply and reliably with the OpenTok platform."

OpenTok has been used by more than 70,000 organizations to add live face to face communications to their site, including American Idol, Major League Baseball, Diet Coke, Ford, Doritos, Bridgestone and Double Robotics.
