Problem
One in four adults struggle to understand speech in challenging acoustics. The increased tendency of remote work and virtual collaboration platforms has exposed everyone to the difficulties of understanding what is being said in noisy video conferences, leaving people with Zoom fatigue after spending hours online.
SOLUTION
Augmentedhearing.io improves speech intelligibility by using AI, not only to suppress background noise but also to personalize the amplification based on the learned characteristics of each voice. Their solution enables turning earbuds into self-driving bots that individually enhance the voices you attend to, while attenuating the ambient sounds you aim to avoid.
KEY CUSTOMERS & INTERNATIONAL PRESENCE
Augmentedhearing.io provides a SaaS-based model integrated with the AWS cloud platform, for B2B partners providing remote work and virtual collaboration services.
Team
The three co-founders have highly complementary build and sell skills based on unique insights into engineering human centered AI. Cumulatively the team has 30+ years of experience ranging from hearing healthcare R&D to business digitalization after previously working at Demant, McKinsey & Company and DTU Compute.
Unique selling point
We are extending consumer earbuds with AI to enhance speech by dynamically adapting amplification to the characteristics of each voice based on learned user preferences.
Asia Connection
We are currently exploring the possibilities of having operations in Asia. In our pursuit, we are looking for B2B Partners.
