Danny Weissberg

Cofounder, Voiceitt

Search every verified Danny Weissberg interview, podcast appearance, and on-the-record quote — each transcript cross-checked by AI and human review to confirm speaker identity. Danny Weissberg, cofounder and CEO of Voiceitt, has described the company's development of Talkitt, an application designed to translate the speech of people with motor and speech disabilities into understandable language. He has stated that the technology was inspired by his grandmother's loss of speech after a stroke, and he has positioned Voiceitt as a voice-based alternative to existing solutions such as communication boards or eye-tracking devices. In presentations from 2014 to 2017, Weissberg outlined the app's calibration process, in which caregivers help train the software to recognize a user's unique pronunciation, and discussed plans for a wearable device supported by a grant from the BIRD Foundation. Weissberg has also addressed the company's market strategy and competitive positioning. He has said that Voiceitt targets a niche of approximately 100 million people worldwide with conditions such as cerebral palsy, Parkinson's disease, ALS, and Down syndrome, a segment he argued is too small for large corporations like Apple, Google, and Amazon to pursue directly. He has mentioned plans to sell the app via subscription, with pricing cited at $20 per month in one 2016 presentation and $99 per month in a 2014 appearance, and has described additional potential applications, including a dashboard for therapists and a database of speech-impaired voices for research. Weissberg has also discussed Voiceitt's early milestones, including winning the 43North startup competition, receiving initial funding from the Israeli Chief Scientist, and beginning beta testing in Israel and New York.
