Cerence AI

Founded 2019

Build voice and multimodal interfaces for vehicles, robots, and automated machinery

You can use Cerence AI to add voice assistants, conversational AI, and multimodal controls to vehicles, robots, and industrial machinery. The system allows drivers and equipment operators to control functions using spoken commands, gaze, and touch, even in noisy settings or without internet access. Automotive dealerships can deploy automated voice agents to handle customer phone calls, qualify sales leads, and book test drives directly into CRM systems. It also detects emergency vehicle sirens using vehicle microphones to alert drivers and automated driving systems.
