Our take
Audio has become central to many products on the internet, from the explosive uptake of Zoom to the inclusion of audio and video messaging features on dating apps. In this vein, AssemblyAI has developed AI models for transcribing, understanding and analyzing audio and video data.
Between the summers of 2021 to 2022, AssemblyAI saw the number of developers building with its APIs grow by over 1000%, with customers ranging from start-ups like Veed to global enterprises including NBC Universal and Spotify. Coupling this with a strong in-house pedigree - from the likes of DeepMind, Google Brain and Meta AI - AssemblyAI is undoubtedly positioned for an exciting future.
The company recently raised funding which will be used to scale up its efforts; accelerating its product roadmap whilst building an even better AI infrastructure to speed up AI research and inference engines.
