Ribbit is a phone company for the 21st century -- created to bring Silicon Valley processes, business models and innovation to the telephony industry, by working from the ground up, focusing on the team, technology and business model.
Weʼre changing how we think about communications by empowering thousands of developers to
quickly create rich telephony applications and put them into the hands of millions of consumers and businesses. The future of communications will be brought to you by armies of developers, rapidly building and deploying fresh, innovative communication solutions that align with 21st century needs. Ribbit is a new phone company designed for a new world where communications need to transcend carriers, networks, devices and technologies and work seamlessly wherever we are, whatever we're doing and accommodate whatever possibilities the future may bring.
The nearly $3 trillion telephony industry has remained nearly the same for the past few decades, with very little innovation. And, until now, users have not been able to seamlessly integrate voice into the workflow of their lives – personal and business. But, the worlds of telephony, computers, and the Internet are converging, as telephony enters a period of rapid innovation. With the Ribbit SmartSwitch™, Ribbit is seamlessly bridging the gap between multiple networks, and online and offline devices, while bringing meaningful new communication solutions to consumers and businesses – dramatically changing the way we view communications.
Ribbit was founded in 2006, and is a subsidiary of BT, a global telecommunications provider.
