Ava Funding & Investors

Ava want to radically improve how they humans communicate with each other. Their first step at Ava is to empower 466M deaf and hard-of-hearing people to live in a fully accessible world. Every day, millions of people are excluded from conversations because they cannot hear what others say well. Their small but fast-growing team has reinvented AI-based speech recognition technology to be in service of people who need it the most. They dream of a 24/7 accessible world, without any communication barrier. In this pursuit, they're seeing how critical communication skills are, yet very far from ideal, to unleash their collective potential. This is for them the ultimate barrier they need to lift.
