Voicemod Raises $8 Million Series A to Bring Voice Avatar Personalization to Create More Immersive Gaming and Social Experiences

Voicemod, the world’s leading audio avatar company, announced today the close of an $8 million USD Series A led by BITKRAFT Ventures. Voicemod’s vision is to enable gamers and content creators to find their true voice by providing immersive audio experiences via personalized voice avatars. The company will use this investment to launch mobile applications, expand further into the Asian markets, and invest in neural network-based (“AI”) voice and speech conversion technologies to create even more unique and realistic voices.
Using a combination of AI and Digital Signal Processing technologies, Voicemod offers users the ability to change one’s voice in real-time in order to enhance the overall gaming and streaming/social sharing experience and empower players’ desires to experiment with alternate personas. Voicemod allows gamers to switch among various voices, integrate sound memes, or experiment with game play-context related voice effects. From adding the effect of being out of breath after parachuting onto the island in Fortnite to creating an echo while driving through a tunnel in Grand Theft Auto, Voicemod makes the gaming experience more engaging.
“We create sound effects that can take gamers and content creators anywhere and allow them to become anyone or anything. We believe that everybody should be able to express themselves creatively through sound so that every experience is amplified,” said Voicemod CEO & Co-Founder Jaime Bosch. “Image and video filters have increased in popularity and Voicemod is bringing the missing piece – a voice filter that enhances gameplay with fully immersive audio experiences. Thanks to the backing from BITKRAFT Ventures, we will be able to advance our mission to create more entertaining and engaging interactive audiovisual communication.”
“Voice is a fundamental signature of human identity. Being able to alter your voice in digital platforms/games is an important tool to elevate human expression and create greater entertainment experiences. Voicemod is changing the way we interact both socially on digital platforms and while playing online and the wide customer adoption of the Voicemod’s service proves that the product is driving the future for real-time voice creation and customization,” said BITKRAFT Founding General Partner, Malte Barth.

DreamPlay consolidates its status as a global player in the iGaming industry and opens an office and campus in Cyprus

DreamPlayâs ambitions go far beyond simple game development. With a new office in Limassol, the international iGaming solutions provider is expanding its presence in Europe and laying the foundations for a new philosophy of the iGaming business.
The location in Limassol was not chosen by chance â Cyprus has long become the European center of iGaming. It is here that key market players, large operators and financial structures supporting the industry are concentrated. And the high concentration of technology and talented developers allows DreamPlay to form its own ecosystem of talent.
If in the 2010s Cyprus became a hub for classic iGaming operators, today it is a point of attraction for technology companies that are betting on metaverses and the integration of games into a wider digital ecosystem. DreamPlay is one of those shaping this trend.
Google-style campus for game development talents
The DreamPlay office and campus in Limassol are part of the companyâs international network of corporate campuses. Similar hubs already operate in Thailand, Bali, Peru, the UAE and Poland. They offer employees comfortable working conditions and the ability to move between locations, accommodation, meals, legal support for stays in different countries. And all this is at the expense of the company. -And the flexible work format and 4-day work week in the company helps DreamPlay talents maintain a healthy work-life balance. Itâs all about well-established business processes and taking care of the team.
Itâs nice to know that you can come to the country, and there is a Dream Campus where friends, like-minded people and someone who can simply take care of you are waiting for you. They will meet you at the airport, give you a tour, accompany you on medical or legal issues. Itâs all part of the team.
âiGaming is an industry of emotions. Therefore, the people who create it should work where they feel best. Therefore, in our campuses we create an environment where the team can feel maximum freedom for creativity, focus on creating new breakthrough products. And not be distracted by everyday issues. And we are sure that this gives us a strategic advantage, because we are sure that our employees have received better conditions than their colleagues in other companies. Comfort, flexibility and freedom are part of our global philosophy of DreamPlay,â shares DreamPlay CEO Alex Tkach.
Â
What does this mean for the market?
Opening a DreamPlay office in Cyprus is a wise decision, as the company is preparing to enter new markets and partner with the largest iGaming players. It is also a signal to the entire market that the company is moving into the league of global players who dictate trends, rather than following them.
If today Cyprus is another platform for international expansion, then tomorrow DreamPlay may turn into one of the first technology companies in iGaming, operating on the principle of large IT holdings.
And this is where the main intrigue lies: will DreamPlay become the one who fundamentally rethinks the very nature of the industry?
