AIM Custom Clients

You can integrate the full power of the AIM service into any program that you create. For example, you can give users the option to send and receive messages on the AIM network in that next killer app you're building. You could even create a client specific to your company, community, or school.

Why should I be impressed?

The AIM® service is one of the largest online communities in the world and leads the U.S. market as America's favorite real time communications service. You can take advantage of this social network by integrating it into your own programs. We'll be continually rolling out new features to improve and enhance our developer community. Stay tuned.
