When you download and install the Voice Elements Demo, you are assigned a testing phone number with 100 minutes to use on the Inventive Labs Telephony Bank.
Whether you are a hard-core programmer experienced in telephony applications or a project manager searching for solutions, our demo is designed to give you the test drive you are looking for.
The software downloaded with the demo is already equipped to use in production when you activate your Cloud or Premise services. Trying the demo and converting to production is seamless.

Sample Solutions
Which Features are in Which Sample?
This link in the customer portal points to a document explaining what feature you will be testing in each solution. This is very helpful when you want to test a particular feature, like Recording a Conversation or Detecting a Human or Machine. Each feature is listed, showing which sample solution(s) will test it.
Download Formats
The Sample Solutions listed on the left can be downloaded in three different formats:
- Windows Program (compiled application) — If you aren’t a programmer or Visual Studio isn’t loaded on your device, then this is the perfect download option for you to easily see each Sample Solution in action. This executable program can be downloaded and tested on any Windows platform device.
- Windows Source Code (WinForm or Service) — This download format runs on Windows and you must have Visual Studio. Programmers will appreciate getting to explore the code behind each solution and can run the solution from their desktop.
