Team
Bantr is led by a small team of engineers and exited founders with a shared passion. We are backed by pre-seed venture investors.
We are based in Los Altos, California. Our team members have long-tenured careers in AI, software, and entertainment.
We strongly believe that a small, focused team with a clear vision can build great things.
Product
We are building a generative social engine for the world’s most compelling social interactions between humans and AI.
Voice as an interface is nuanced and intimate, which makes it a difficult medium to get right. There is a high bar that must be met for voice to be delightful and not annoying, and we are careful and deliberate in how we design our products to meet our users where they want to be.
We believe that a great voice product calls for an interdisciplinary approach that tightly integrates software, machine learning, and storytelling.
Research
Deep and innovative research is essential to our goals. Our research team is actively pushing forward on multiple fronts, including real-time conversational voice, sound generation, emergent social interactions, personality modeling, applied memory, and multimodality.
