Hiring Pitch

We build SOTA voice models for regional languages — Urdu, Bengali, Pashto, Greek, and more — so people around the world can use technology by simply speaking.

We gather our own data, build our own labeling tools, train our own models, and design our own voice infrastructure. This fully integrated approach is what lets us deliver the highest-quality models, and the best developer experience, for regional languages.
