Gradium, a Paris-based AI voice startup, has announced a $100 million seed extension round with backing from Nvidia. The company positions itself as a competitor to ElevenLabs in the growing AI voice synthesis market.
The substantial seed round signals continued investor interest in AI voice technology, particularly with Nvidia's involvement, which suggests the hardware giant sees potential in Gradium's approach to voice AI. The funding will likely support the company's development of voice generation models and expansion of its customer base.
