S12 E4: The Accent-Biased Workplace: Shifting from Extractive Transcripts to Local, On-Device "Listener-Side" Phoneme Translation with Arto Minasyan, Co-Founder & President of Krisp.ai

Arto Minasyan is originally from Armenia. He's a serial entrepreneur, having started 7 companies, selling 4 of them. He used to be into the sciences, having his PhD in Mathematics and Machine Learning. But outside of tech, he's married with 2 kids. He loves to read novels, and in fact writes books himself (mainly his memoirs). He loves to ski, and aligned with his Armenian heritage, he loves to spend time with his big family.

Arto and his colleague got breakfast together, and started talking through an idea around clean audio for conferencing and beyond. They built a prototype, and then COVID hit - which made their tool very popular.

This is the creation story of Krisp.ai.
