We enable creatives by putting high-tech, human parity technology into their hands, giving them the ability to add voice over to any project and iterate with ease. We foresee our product further satisfying voice over needs in all eLearning sectors as well as movie production, advertising, video games, assistive devices, and in call center spaces.

We have secured millions of dollars in funding from top-tier VCs, and are looking to hire our founding 8-10 person team.
