Spotify can Create More High-quality Voices by Acquiring Sonantic

Streaming giant Spotify, most famous for its music and podcast streaming services, has announced that it is acquiring Sonantic, a dynamic AI voice platform that creates compelling and stunningly realistic voices from text. 

You may not know the name Sonantic, but you may have seen its work. Its technology helped bring Val Kilmer’s voice to life in “Top Gun: Maverick.” Can you tell the differences?

With no doubt, Spotify's acquisition of Sonantic will bring more machine-narrated audiobooks. Spotify said in their newsletter, listeners come to Spotify for all of the best audio content in the world—and we believe that Sonantic’s technology will allow us to create high-quality experiences for our users by building on our existing technical capabilities. 

“We’re looking forward to joining Spotify and continuing to build exciting voice experiences,” said Sonantic co-founders Zeena Qureshi and John Flynn in a joint statement. “We believe in the power voice has and its ability to foster a deeper connection with listeners around the world, and we know we can be better than ever on the world’s largest audio platform.”

Let's hope that Spotify can bring us more high-quality voices.
