Palabra AI Secures €8.4 Million Funding for Real-Time Voice Translation
Palabra AI, a UK-based company, has raised €8.4 million in Pre-Seed funding led by Seven Seven Six (776) with contributions from Creator Ventures and several business angels. The funds will be used to enhance technical and commercial teams in Europe and North America, and to accelerate the development of its public API, which is already in use for international conferences and broadcasts.
Palabra AI has developed a real-time voice translation engine capable of starting translations mid-sentence using contextual prediction, achieving latency below 800 milliseconds. This allows for seamless conversation flow. The company has also integrated a proprietary voice cloning layer, replicating timbre, cadence, and intonation.
Palabra AI emphasizes a "privacy by design" approach, processing audio in real-time without storage, aligning with stringent European and American data usage regulations.
