Overview

BoldVoice offers a mobile platform that pairs real-time, phoneme-level pronunciation feedback from proprietary speech models with video lessons from expert accent coaches. The service targets the more than one billion professionals who rely on English at work but face career limitations due to accent and clarity issues. Priced far below traditional $200-$300 per-hour coaching, the app gives users unlimited, on-demand practice. The company has surpassed five million downloads, serves professionals in over 150 countries, and recently exceeded $10 million in annual recurring revenue—all with a team of just seven employees. Founded by Anada Lakra and Ilya Usorov, BoldVoice plans to use new capital to accelerate global expansion and develop additional AI-powered coaching capabilities and proprietary speech models. The app is available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, and the company is actively hiring across growth, product, and engineering roles.
