Techniques for enabling a system to create a multimedia messaging service (MMS) message or a short message service (SMS) message from a spoken message are described. A system may receive audio data corresponding to a spoken message. The system may determine a recipient of the spoken message as well as a device associated with the recipient. The system may determine the type of messaging supported by the device. Based on the messaging capabilities, the system generates either a MMS message or a SMS message. The MMS message may include a message payload including a portion of text corresponding to content of the message as well as audio data embedded in the message payload. The SMS message may include a message payload including a portion of text corresponding to content of the message as well as a link to message content audio data stored by the system.
