## About

Established in 2021 by co-founders Tomer Aharoni, and Alon Ezer and based in New York, US, Nagish Inc. is a developer of artificial intelligence-based communication software for deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals. In July 2024, Nagish Inc. raised USD 11 million in Series A funding led by investor Canaan Partners, with participation from investors K5 Global, Tokyo Black LLC, Cardumen Capital, Vertex Ventures Israel, Contour Venture Partners, and Precursor Ventures. The round was part of a larger USD 16 million seed and Series A funding. The series A funding values Nagish, Inc. at USD 37.77 million post-money.


Nagish's core offering is a mobile application that disrupts traditional phone communication for the HoH community. The platform leverages artificial intelligence to provide a seamless, private, and accurate text-to-speech and speech-to-text conversion during phone calls. The app allows users to link their existing phone numbers with a customizable dictionary to ensure accurate captioning of names and terms. Additionally, the app provides local storage of call transcripts for privacy and reference and blocks telemarketing, robocalls, and spam calls.
 
The company will use the July 2024 funding to support the acceleration of its AI-communication software development.
