This seems to a week full of acquisitions for Apple. The company acquired well-known weather app Dark Sky merely a couple of days ago. Now, Bloomberg reports that Apple has picked up AI voice startup Voysis that could help make Siri better at understanding the user’s natural language.
Voysis was founded by Noel Ruane and Peter Cahill around 8 years ago, back in 2012, to build a voice-driven natural language platform that businesses could integrate into their platforms. The company wanted to set itself apart from Assistant and Alexa by offering an accurate answer to queries like “I want to buy an LED TV for 600 euros. Suggest me the best options,” said Cahill in a 2017 interview.
