Description

Cartesia is a startup that creates voice-first AI tools to help teams prototype quickly and scale up without needing to change their main systems. Their main product, Sonic, is a text-to-speech engine that streams natural voices with emotion and laughter in many languages. They also offer Line, a platform for developers to build voice agents using code-first tools and an SDK. With these products, companies and creators can build voice apps, automated customer support, audio content, and interactive multimedia experiences.

Cartesia is a young company. Its founders met as PhD researchers at Stanford and shifted from lab research to product development in 2023. In December 2024, the startup announced a $27 million seed round led by Index Ventures and several angel investors. Just a few months later, in March 2025, Cartesia raised a $64 million Series A led by Kleiner Perkins, moving the company into a major growth phase. These funding rounds show that established venture capitalists see strong potential in Cartesia’s voice model approach.

Cartesia has grown quickly for such a young startup. In under two years, the team released public demos, added new voice models, and launched developer tools and APIs for real-time text-to-speech and voice agents. Their partnerships with major industry players and new product launches show strong momentum and a clear shift from research to real-world products.
