In October 2007, Skype announced the launch of the Skype Approved Integrator (SAI) service. Let me explain what a SAI does and is...

Skype is often contacted by partners via our partner enquiry form who need development assistance or technical consulting to help them rapidly create a Skype-centric solution. Sometimes Skype has the bandwidth to help with the basics, and sometimes more – but not necessarily the resource to help every partner build a solution.

This is where SAIs come in. They are existing Skype software partners/developers with proven (more than 12 months) experience of the Skype APIs and software integration. Some SAIs may have less if there a specific skill set we feel is important. Software development is global, but we will work to ensure regional and technology coverage (UI, middelware, core) of SAIs

SAI status is by invitation, not application and SAI status will maintain unless we see an exceptional need to revoke it

Here is the current list of Approved Integrators. Check it out...
