AISpeech Eyes International Expansion

Chinese startup AISpeech, a provider of speech recognition, speech synthesis, computer-assisted language learning, speech and tone analysis, and dialogue management technologies, has raised $30 million in new financing, which it says it will use for content consolidation and international market expansion.

The company, which was founded in 2008, had already received tens of millions of dollars in financing from previous funding rounds.

AISpeech's speech recognition and analysis tools have already been used by Sony, Chinese smart watch brand INwatch, and e-commerce firm JD.com for its mobile app.
