Clearspeed

Who we are

Clearspeed is the global leader in voice-based risk assessment. Founded in 2016 and headquartered in San Diego, California, our proprietary voice-analytics technology identifies potential risk in speech using vocal characteristics universal to all humans — enabling faster, more confident decisions in high-stakes environments.

Clearspeed's technology was initially developed for the U.S. Department of Defense and quickly exposes indicators of risk for government and military agencies. Commercially, we help insurers, financial institutions, and other enterprises assess risks like fraud and insider threats, unlock operational savings, and elevate the customer experience. With broad applications, Clearspeed delivers bias-free, highly precise individual risk assessment wherever achieving trust at scale is essential.
