SoundHound AI discusses Polaris, Interactions acquisition, and growth strategy

Revenue Acceleration/Inflection

SoundHound AI has developed Polaris, its own foundation model, which demonstrates 30-40% better accuracy than OpenAI's Whisper or Google, with improved speed and a smaller cost footprint. Deployment across restaurants is complete, and migration within the enterprise space is expected in quarters, not years.
SoundHound recently acquired Interactions for an upfront consideration of $60 million, with potential for earnouts. This acquisition is expected to accelerate growth through a strong customer base, patent portfolio, and opportunities for cross-sell and upsell.
The company has approximately 14,000 deployments in restaurants, primarily for phone ordering, and has achieved record deployment numbers for the past two to three quarters. SoundHound anticipates much greater deployment numbers in the future due to low market penetration.
SoundHound AI has a bookings backlog of over $1 billion and aims to be a strong double-digit grower for a very long time, driven by deep penetration within its existing customer base and a massive pipeline of new opportunities.
