Founder story
Founded in 2022 by Mati Staniszewski (ex-Palantir) and Piotr Dabkowski (ex-Google). The childhood friends were inspired to build the tool after being frustrated by poorly dubbed Hollywood films in their native Poland. They built the company to break down language barriers through realistic AI-driven audio.
