Give every device the sense of hearing

Sonaid is an embedded Sound AI library that lets any microphone understand the sounds around it. It runs on the device, keeps audio private, and ships in a firmware update. Already live in the field.

Billions of microphones. Almost no understanding.

Eight billion devices carry a microphone, and they wait for a wake word while missing everything else.
A fall. A cry for help. A smoke alarm. A gas leak.
Sound is the earliest signal that something is wrong.
It is also the most overlooked.
Discover how we solve this

Live in the field, not in a lab

Independent living: an older woman at home using a tablet, with a smart speaker nearby
Assisted living: sound detection in nursing homes and care residences
Safety at work: a site worker with a rugged device showing sound-based safety alerts
Safety at home: a connected smoke alarm detected by sound
Safety in public spaces: travelers in a busy modern station concourse
Robots: a friendly white service robot indoors

Sound is the signal everyone already has

2,000+

sounds we live around
Voice AI understands one sound: speech. Sonaid listens for the rest: smoke alarms, breaking glass, verbal aggression, a call for help, running water.

~100

contexts per sound event
Few-shot learning adapts each detection to real environments: independent living, assisted living, safety at home, and workplaces that welcome the public.

29B

connected devices by 2030
Homes, care settings, workplaces, and now robots that adapt to what they hear. The microphones are already there; Sonaid gives them understanding.

Sound is the earliest signal of distress. Yet billions of devices can't hear it.
