RocketPhone raises £8.6m to fuel AI-driven innovation

RocketPhone.ai, a London-based company specializing in AI-powered voice processing systems, has successfully raised £8.6 million in funds. Uniquely, none of this capital comes from venture capital firms. The company's technology is designed to enhance customer service, increase sales leads, and improve agent satisfaction by recording and analyzing phone calls. With this funding, RocketPhone aims to further develop its product offerings, including a new video analysis tool set to be released in the coming months. This tool promises to revolutionize video meeting analysis by evaluating facial and body expressions to assess engagement and distraction. In addition, the company has strengthened its advisory board by appointing Professor Michael Wooldridge from the University of Oxford, a leading expert in AI. Co-founders Muj Choudhury and Sam Gillingham are focused on using these developments to shape the future of sales in sectors such as financial services and automotive.
