While situated in an underground bunker, the pair continually recorded themselves and the audio surrounding them.In the hours not devoted to research, we life-logged, Stephenson told Built In via email. When we tried to go back and find key conversations and specific moments in those audio files, we felt the very real pain of not having a good tool available to help process the recordings and pinpoint valuable timestamps. Deepgram wants to develop solutions for elements of speech such as emotion detection, intent recognition, summarization and more.The company is also hiring for several roles. Deepgram is currently looking to fill remote positions across teams including engineering, customer success, research and sales.
