## About

Founded in 2018 and based in Queensland, Australia, Replica Media Pty Ltd. operates as a provider of text-to-speech software powered by artificial intelligence that can replicate the voice, speech patterns, pronunciation, and emotional range of a person. Keni Mardira (CSO) and Shreyas Nivas (CEO) are the co-founders of the company. In September 2023, Replica Studios raised USD 2.9 million in seed funding from Flying Fox Ventures, and in December 2021, Replica Media Pty Ltd. raised USD 5 million in seed funding from Carthona Capital, Mawson Ventures, and Techstars Ventures. As of 2023, the company also has an office in the US.

The company offers AI Voice Actors, in which the AI model learns how to perform by replicating the distinctive speech patterns, pronunciation, and emotional range of real voice actors. Text-to-speech, digital rights, and a voice library are among its features. The firm also provides a digital voice studio, which contains capabilities such as script development, prototyping, audio export, direct emotions, speech controls, and collaboration. Replica Studios integrations include Unreal Engine, Unity, iClone, the Replica API, and Omniverse.

The organization generates revenue through its pricing plans, which include the 4 hours of speech generation credit for USD 36 and the enterprise plan for customized pricing.
