Alta Voce brings to market high-quality software technologies that shape voice in real-time, to improve communication and social relations.
Whether the voice belongs to a person from a customer care centre, or to your vocal assistant, you need it to be intelligible and expressive. Our cutting edge voice processing solutions are driven by advanced research in cognitive neuroscience, focused on how speech and music create emotions.
