Nuance Labs is building the first human foundation model — a unified system that understands and expresses human emotion in real-time across speech, facial expression, and body language. We are crossing the uncanny valley to create AI interactions that feel truly alive. We recently raised a 10M seed round (Accel, South Park Commons, Lightspeed) and our founding team comes from MIT, UW, and Oxford, with deep experience shipping AI products at Apple and Meta. We are a small, fast-moving team that values in-person collaboration in our Seattle HQ.
