Orative

Orative Corporation was an enterprise software company that built conferencing and collaboration software for mobile business users, offering a client-server product to manage conversations, collaborate with colleagues, filter unwanted calls and notifications, and access personal and corporate directories. Founded in the early 2000s, it raised a $12M Series B in July 2004 led by Trinity Ventures (with Mayfield and Diamondhead Ventures) and was acquired by Cisco Systems in October 2006. The company is defunct: there is no live product, developer portal, or API surface today. This profile was surfaced as a Trinity Ventures portfolio company and processed by the API Evangelist enrichment pipeline, which confirmed no current API surface exists.

Orative is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Enterprise Software, Conferencing, Collaboration, and Mobile.
