Soundcheck builds a plugin that transforms WordPress site content into Google's speakable data format so voice assistants can more readily find and read the most important parts. The product automates the markup, handles data validation, and provides a preview of how content will sound when read aloud. Initially focused on WordPress, the company says it plans to add support for other content platforms and is building an analytics tool to show publishers when and where content is accessed by voice. The plugin is free for users who need support for their 50 latest WordPress posts; paid plans for more posts and integrations are priced between $20 and $79 per month. Soundcheck was founded by Daniel Tyreus and Narendra Rocherolle, who previously built Peck (founded 2016) and Rocherolle co-founded Webshots. The team has raised $1.5 million to date and counts several prominent backers.
