audEERING

audEERING offers advanced AI-powered voice analysis and empathic AI capabilities designed to understand and respond to human vocal expression. The technology captures the complexity of voice through around 7000 acoustic parameters spanning phonatory, articulatory, and prosodic aspects of speech. The suite enables tone-of-voice expression understanding and aims to create more natural human-machine interactions across various domains.

What it does

• Provides AI-powered voice analysis to decode emotional and cognitive states from vocal expressions.
• Delivers empathic AI interactions by aligning machine responses with human tone and intention.
• Supports integration via SDKs, Web API, and plugins for XR applications to enhance immersion with tone-of-voice understanding.
• Includes a secure data platform (AI SoundLab) for audio data collection with GDPR-compliant privacy protections.

Key Products

• devAIce®: Core AI voice analytics available as SDK, Web API, and XR plugins to bring voice intelligence into products.
• devAIce® XR: Unity/Unreal plugin that adds tone-of-voice expression understanding to immersive environments.
• AI SoundLab: Data collection platform focused on privacy; enables voice-based biomarker analysis and access to voice data for research and product development.

How it works

• Collects audio data via microphones and processes it to extract a comprehensive set of acoustic features.
• Applies machine learning models to infer expressive attributes, speaker traits, and potential vocal biomarkers related to diseases or conditions.
• Provides developers with tools to incorporate expressive voice capabilities into their applications, from XR experiences to automotive and healthcare solutions.
