About Hume AI

11-50 employees

Built from a decade of voice and emotion research. To build emotionally intelligent voice AI, we first had to define what “good” sounds like – not just acoustically, but perceptually and in real human conversations. That led us to build the research infrastructure behind expressive, trustworthy voice AI: scientifically grounded datasets, speech models, evaluation frameworks, and human preference pipelines. Today, we make that infrastructure available to frontier labs and AI-native companies building the next generation of voice. Whether you’re building foundation models, fine-tuning voice agents, or evaluating production systems, Hume provides the tools to measure, improve, and align voice AI the way people actually experience them.
