By MYBRANDBOOK
Murf.ai has raised $10 million in a Series A funding round led by Matrix Partners India, with participation from existing investor Elevation Capital. The round also saw participation from prominent angel investors including Ajay Arora, SVP Product, Disney Streaming; Ankit Bhati, Founder, Ola; Ashwini Asokan, Founder, Mad Street Den; Pushkar Mukewar, Founder, Drip Capital; and Yamini Bhat, Founder, Vymo.
With these funds, Murf plans to further drive product innovation, accelerate R&D, and scale its presence in focused geographies. The capital will be used to expand the capabilities of Murf’s core synthetic speech technology, scale its voice catalogue, and broaden the company’s reach globally, among other product developments.
Murf says its AI-powered TTS can track and learn from a vast amount of contextual information to return a relevant response. The AI voice generator enables users to add images, videos, and background music and sync the voiceover with the visuals and music. The platform also offers key features for smart pronunciations using IPA, voice customisations that enable users to change pitch, pause, emphasis, and speed, as well as the ability to clone a voice.
Murf helps businesses simplify the process of creating natural-sounding voice overs using AI. The firm’s AI-powered SaaS tool enables users to create lifelike voices for their content. From L&D, educators, authors, and podcasters to animators, product developers, YouTubers, freelancers, and corporate coaches, the platform has a voice for every creator across all industries.
The startup's curated voice library of 120+ realistic sounding AI voices in 20+ languages, is ideal for those on a tight budget who want to create voice overs at scale. Murf’s geographic footprint spans worldwide, with 80 percent of its customers coming in from the US, Canada, and EU regions.
