Our thoughts

History of founding

Our speech recognition technology was jointly developed by a development team spun off from Carnegie Mellon University.
In early 1998, a joint development project was established. They had achieved the feat of taking first place for two consecutive years in 1996-97 in the annual speech recognition competition sponsored by the Department of Defense. At that time, they had already developed a large-scale vocabulary continuous speech recognition engine for 2 countries, and when I experienced the Japanese version myself, I remember being more than surprised by the recognition accuracy and speed. Masu. This encounter led to the establishment of Advanced Media in December 17, with the aim of creating a market for myself in Japan.

From children to the elderly, men and women, speaking speeds, intonations and accents, noisy places... Even under such diverse conditions, AmiVoice can recognize words with a level of accuracy that is practical to use.

Since our founding, we have adopted a business strategy of receiving investment from major manufacturers and jointly developing products. In 1998, a year after our founding, we formed a consortium of 20 companies. We provided a beta version free of charge and made repeated improvements, and officially released it in July 2000. Currently, we have over 7 customers, and many products are being developed and actively used in a wide range of industries.
