Real-time accent matching firm Sanas closes $5.5M seed round

Sanas, the Silicon Valley-based creators of an innovative accent conversion technology, have just closed a $5.5 million seed round. The round was led by top venture funds including Human Capital, General Catalyst, Quiet Capital, and DN Capital.

Sanas’ accent conversion technology can convert accents in real-time without a noticeable lag – all while adhering to all data security standards. Built with the help of the minds behind Shazam, Siri, and more, this world-first technology is set to revolutionize the BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) industry.

Currently, Sanas has over 20,000 call center seats signed on prior to its launch in India. This one-of-a-kind tech will be deploying with its initial partners later this summer.

Accents in customer service can be a large hindrance to clear communication between two parties. Fortunately, Sanas is here to make conversations easier.

Their accent conversion technology is set to help millions of call center agents worldwide communicate more easily with their customers, particularly for agents in the Philippines and India.
