Icelandic startup Treble, co-founded by acoustic engineers Finnur Pind and Jesper Pedersen in 2020, has raised an additional $18 million in an extension of its Series A funding round. This latest investment was led by Paladin Capital Group and included existing investors KOMPAS VC, Frumtak Ventures, EIC, and Omega ehf.
The new funding brings Treble's total capital raised to over $40 million, following a $12 million investment in 2024. The company's platform is designed to simulate voice AI, catering to model makers, robotics companies, and consumer hardware manufacturers, and counts Amazon and Logitech among its customers.
Treble's offerings include a synthetic data generation platform for speech enhancement, noise suppression, and model training. It also evaluates voice AI models in different conditions and has partnered with Hugging Face to launch a benchmark for speech recognition models. Additionally, the startup works with headphone and speaker companies for virtual prototyping and has expanded into simulation testing for smart glasses and AI devices.
