# Vocatech

## About
Vocatech is a business VoIP phone service for small and mid-size businesses, built on Cisco BroadWorks with a proprietary application layer on top. Founded 2008 in Brooklyn, NY. Over 1,000 businesses, 97% retention rate. 18 years in operation.

## What Makes Vocatech Different
Most VoIP providers either resell BroadWorks as-is (dated user experience, expensive third-party add-ons) or build their own consumer-polished stack from scratch (not carrier-grade, breaks on updates). Vocatech is the rare provider that puts BroadWorks underneath and builds our own platform on top: proprietary call recording server, Whisper AI transcription on our own GPU, Callpop desktop app, Reports dashboard, Textdock SMS/WhatsApp in Webex, custom integrations workshop, admin portal. Flat price. No contracts. Real humans on the phone.
