Nuance Labs announced a $50M Series A led by Lightspeed, with Accel, SPC, NVIDIA, and definevc participating.
The startup is building a single full-duplex audio-visual foundation model that sees, listens, and responds in real time, aiming to understand the full spectrum of human emotion—from facial expressions and gestures to listening states—so conversations with machines feel as natural as talking with a friend. The live demo drew strong praise.
