SpeakIn Technologies is a voiceprint-recognition and identity-security company founded in Silicon Valley in 2015 and headquartered in Shenzhen. Using deep neural networks and its iVector engine, SpeakIn turns the unique physical signature of a human voice into a biometric key, offering both 1:1 verification (is this the right speaker?) and 1:N identification (who is speaking, out of many?). Its SDK and cloud APIs are used across banking, public security, and smart devices, with reported accuracy near 98% and customers including Tencent, Lenovo, ASUS, and China Merchants Bank.
Lawrence Chen (Chen Haoliang) is the founder and CEO of SpeakIn Technologies, a Shenzhen-based voiceprint recognition company he started in 2015. An MIT dropout who previously worked on Google Glass's human-machine interaction program, Chen built SpeakIn to verify identities through voice rather than passwords, claiming 99.5% accuracy and selling into Chinese banks and public security bureaus. He was named to Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia in 2018.
