Ava is a company founded by Thibault and Skinner to make live captioning of conversations as easy as turning on captions on TV. They aim to empower 466M deaf and hard-of-hearing people to live in a fully accessible world. Their small but fast-growing team has reinvented AI-based speech recognition technology to be in service of people who need it the most. They dream of a 24/7 accessible world, without any communication barrier, and believe that well-designed technology can help everyone communicate and connect better.
