SoundHound AI Leverages Voice AI to Boost Prospects
SoundHound AI rides on a solid product portfolio to drive innovation in the restaurant and hospitality industry with its voice AI solutions, making significant strides in transforming the way businesses operate and engage with customers.
SOUN's AI restaurant solutions have gained widespread traction, with notable customer adoption, including Bai Mai Thai, Bubbakoos Burritos, Chicken Shack, CoreLife Eatery, Dog Haus, Happy Endings Hospitality, Sam & Louie's, Tonyburgers, Zeeks Pizza and many other establishments.
SoundHound AI is making strides in enterprise restaurants, partnering with industry giants like Jersey Mike's and Krispy Kreme to integrate voice AI ordering solutions, revolutionizing in-store operations with automation.
SoundHound AI also recently introduced Employee Assist, a voice-enabled technology providing seamless support for restaurant staff, enhancing accessibility to critical information without the need for manuals, which is particularly beneficial amid labor shortages.
The company’s partnership with OLO (OLO - Free Report) in the third quarter of 2023 marks a significant advancement in the delivery of its innovative solutions to a broader spectrum of the restaurant industry.
OLO's collaboration with SoundHound integrates advanced solutions across 77,000 locations, enhancing accessibility and fostering digital transformation for improved restaurant operations and customer experiences.
SOUN’s prospects in the conversational AI space are expected to be bright, as reflected in its strong global customer base. Clients like Snap (SNAP - Free Report) and Netflix (NFLX - Free Report) leverage their voice AI solutions to enhance their product portfolio.
SOUN allows SNAP to automatically generate captions for videos recorded on Snapchat, letting users add text overlays that match their voice and enhance their stories.
Netflix benefits from SoundHound AI’s technology as it provides voice control and search capabilities for Netflix’s streaming service on devices such as set-top boxes and smart TVs.
The robust portfolio is expected to boost SOUN’s top-line growth. In third-quarter 2023, revenues increased 18.6% year over year to $13.3 million. The year-over-year upside can be attributed to portfolio strength that combines software engineering and generative AI. This has helped SoundHound attract new customers.
SOUN’s shares have returned 22% in the past month compared with the Zacks Computer and Technology sector’s rise of 8%.
