Fluent.ai announced collaboration with Knowles Corporation to deliver fully offline and app-free AI-powered voice control for true wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds and other hearable products. Fluent.ai's small-footprint AI software solution running on Knowles IA8201 can be integrated into TWS earbuds for accurate voice command recognition without the need for an accompanying smartphone app or cloud connectivity. The companies joint solution offers hearables OEMs a platform to develop high-quality and flexible voice control in TWS devices for a natural and convenient user experience.

Fluent.ai is upending the way people experience voice-enabled listening. Its patented speech-to-intent technology leverages natural and flexible voice commands to trigger essential TWS actions, including activating noise cancellation, controlling music, accepting or declining calls, and checking battery level, without the need for an app or finger tap. Built for any device and use in any environment, Fluent's robust, low-latency technology can be embedded in even the tiniest devices like earbuds, and with partners like Knowles, offers noise cancellation capabilities.

The technology offers quick and accurate, multilingual and accent agnostic voice recognition with flexible voice commands for a better user experience anytime, anywhere. Fluent's AI software resides locally on Knowles AIsonic audio edge processor IA8201, which does not use data from the cloud, meaning Fluent's technology works completely offline, without the need for a Wi-Fi connection. This provides OEMs a seamless, no lag, exceptional voice control solution for TWS products.
