 About Us

At Josh Talks, we believe voice will be the primary interface between humans and machines.

Our mission:

•  Help machines talk like humans
•  Build benchmarks & datasets that power global speech AI
•  Drive breakthroughs with high-quality, diverse, real-world data (not just algorithms)

 Today's models sound robotic because they're slow & inaccurate.

Our goals: <200 ms latency and <5% WER so conversations feel natural.

We build benchmarks, datasets, and foundational speech models using State Space Models (SSMs) where Transformers fall short. We're a small, fast team obsessed with precision; every decision is measured, documented, and shipped with intent.
