About June Labs

Building the future of human-AI connection through audio intelligence.

Mission

Solve the Speech Turing Test. Achieve real-time voice conversations that inspire and connect.

We're building Audio Language Models that transform human-AI interactions, making them more natural, engaging, and immersive.

Our research focuses on achieving Emotional General Intelligence (EGI)—creating AI systems that understand and respond with genuine empathy.

Vision

01

Audio Intelligence

End-to-end Audio Language Models bring us closer to seamless, human-like communication with AI. We're unlocking the full potential of audio intelligence through models capable of real-time, emotionally resonant voice interactions.

02

Voice as the medium

Voice carries what text cannot—emotion, timing, nuance, authenticity. Unlike traditional Text-to-Speech systems, our audio-native models process speech directly, preserving the complete emotional signal.

03

Emotional General Intelligence

We're pursuing a new dimension of AI: Emotional General Intelligence. Creating human-AI connections that feel natural and deeply engaging. Aligning AI to genuinely care about humanity through empathy and emotional understanding.

04

Research-first approach

We build state-of-the-art Audio Language Models through rigorous research. Our focus: real-time processing, emotional understanding, multimodal learning, and creating AI systems that truly listen and respond with empathy.
