Abstract

Systems, methods, and machine-readable media are disclosed to provide content of various media types to various platforms or devices. In one embodiment, providing content of a first media type to a recipient end device can comprise receiving from an initiating end device a request for a communication with the recipient end device. The first media type can be determined from the request and a second media type appropriate for use by the recipient end device can be determined. A service to convert the content of the first media type to content of the second media type can be determined. The indication of the content of the first media type can be submitted to the service and an indication of the content of the second media type can be received from the service. The content of the second media type can then be provided to the recipient end device.
