About Talking Computers
Summary
Talking Computers builds multimodal interaction models for voice agents, giving AI systems the ability to converse, listen, and respond with human-like fluidity. Its models target the latency bottleneck between foundation models and real-time voice interaction, optimizing for time to first audio token. The work it replaces is the manual engineering required to make capable AI models genuinely interactive across high-stakes fields such as healthcare, education, law, and public safety.
Go-to-market
The company is in stealth and engages prospective partners directly via founder outreach, targeting B2B customers building or deploying voice agents on top of foundation models.

AI for AI Infrastructure
We deploy fleets of AI Infrastructure Engineers to collaborate over week-long time horizons, run 100s of experiments in parallel, and learn from them to optimize your training/ inference infrastructure to your workloads. We've partnered with companies to speed up their GPU kernels to 6x SOTA, and improved the latency of voice models to twice the competition.
