episode 334: Voicemod CEO Jaime Bosch on Voice Changers, Audio Expression, and More
Voicemod is a pioneer in audio expression. The company is best known for its real-time voice changer technologies that are popular in the gamer communities, where users can sound like a cartoon character, a movie actor, another gender, or anything you can imagine. The product's capabilities and popularity extends to other use cases as well, including use for recorded speech, sound bed generation, and more.
Jaime Bosch is CEO and co-founder of Voicemod, founded in 2014. Voicemod raised $14 million in February 2023 and is currently riding a new wave of interest brought on by the rise in generative AI. However, the company's user base growth began well before ChatGPT. Pre-pandemic, the company had 5 million users. Post-pandemic, that number was 25 million. Today Voicemod has 40 million users.
Bosch walks through the evolution of the product, including the shift from DSP to AI technology and today's hybrid solution. In addition, he shares details about the two moments of product market fit and how AI is enabling a new era of audio self-expression.
