Voiceitt Names New CEO

Voiceitt, a provider of speech recognition for non-standard speech, has appointed Alyson Pace, formerly a director at Cisco, as CEO, replacing co-founder Danny Weissberg, who has stepped down as CEO. 

Pace joins Voiceitt from Cisco, where she served as director of strategy, business development, and partnerships in the collaboration business.

"I am deeply inspired by the vision, dedication, and tireless work that has brought the company to this turning point," Pace said in a statement.  "Voiceitt, which was founded with the mission to help people with speech disabilities live more connected lives, is emerging as a leading provider of voice AI for non-standard speech.  The underlying technology, speech recognition based on cutting-edge proprietary automatic speech recognition algorithms, has moved from science fiction to a real, working product. The business opportunities sit at the heart of a revolution in conversational AI as well as a paradigm shift in inclusion and accessibility. There is no better timing."
