## About

Established in 2022 and based in France, Gladia SAS operates as a technology company that specializes in enhancing audio processing capabilities for developers, companies, and various use cases.

Gladia SAS provides a platform with automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology that allows users to convert audio, video files, or URLs into text format. In addition to core transcription, its API includes a comprehensive package of Audio Intelligence add-ons, including diarization, which automatically partitions an audio recording into segments corresponding to different speakers, allowing for speaker identification and analysis. It also supports timestamping, enabling the association of specific timestamps with each recognized word in the transcribed text. The API finds applications across various industries, including content and media, virtual meetings, workspace collaboration, and call centers. 

The company generates revenue through its software subscription with the pro, and enterprise packages.   

The company will use the funding to support the expansion of its offering and product development.
