Building on vCons? Let's build together.
Bring your vCon connector, product, or service to enterprise buyers faster, on a platform that already works.
Why now
Organizations have valuable data trapped inside their conversation records. The vCon standard is being developed to capture, share, and govern that data in one common format.
A common format creates demand for everything around it: connectors, implementation support, governance expertise, training, and applications built on top.
Organizations will need a way to bring conversations from their existing channels into vCon format. That's where partners come in.

Questions
vCon is an open standard. Why partner with anyone?
It is open, and it should stay that way. Anyone can build on it. Partnering gets you to enterprise buyers faster, on a working platform, with a team that already sells to them.
Is my idea kept confidential?
Yes. Everything you submit is held in confidence.
Do I need to be an established company?
No. We talk with founders who have an early idea and with companies that have thousands of customers.
Is vConversational vCon Certification an official IETF certification?
No. The IETF develops standards and doesn't certify people or products. vConversational vCon Certification is our own program, built on the published specification.
Is vCon an official standard yet?
vCon is being developed by the IETF's Virtualized Conversations Working Group. The core specification is an active Internet-Draft on the Standards Track. We'll update this page when it's published as an RFC.
