About ai-coustics
ai-coustics is a Berlin-based startup building the audio intelligence layer for Voice AI. Founded by researchers in audio, acoustics, and machine learning, the company focuses on the fundamental reliability problem that causes voice systems to fail outside controlled environments.
Rather than competing with ASR, LLMs, or TTS, ai-coustics makes them reliable. Its SDK and model infrastructure sit between real-world sound and machine understanding, conditioning raw audio into stable, machine-ready input optimized for downstream behavior. The company’s Quail model family delivers real-time speech enhancement, speaker isolation, and voice activity detection designed specifically for production of Voice AI.
ai-coustics powers voice agents, transcription pipelines, and telephony systems, and is natively integrated in LiveKit and Pipecat.
Its mission is to make audio input reliable and measurable, so voice systems can operate with confidence where real people actually speak.
