SoundHound Team

We’re excited to announce our partnership with Entercom, a leading creator of live, original, and local audio content, to voice-enable music, podcasts, news, and more from RADIO.COM. Soon, developers of voice user interfaces (VUIs) in a variety of industries can choose to include voice-enabled RADIO.COM content from Houndify’s extensive library of content domains.

Anytime, anywhere access to RADIO.COM’s extensive portfolio of live and on-demand content will be particularly helpful to developers of voice assistants in the automotive, retail, hospitality, and telecom sectors.

Users will soon have hands-free access to over 230 stations, hundreds of affiliate stations, thousands of top podcasts, live and on-demand video, and premium content across local and national news, entertainment, music, and sports in markets all across the U.S.

“SoundHound is blazing a path for voice-enabled technology and we’re excited for our premium content to be accessible on their growing platform,” said David Rosenbloom, Vice President, Corporate Business Development, Entercom. “This strategic partnership will expand our voice function accessibility and most importantly provide a safe way for users to consume their favorite audio using Houndify’s ingenious conversational abilities.”

“Offering the highest quality voice-enabled content is a critical part of our overall mission,” said Kamyar Mohajer, VP Corporate Strategy and International Expansion at SoundHound Inc. “We’re therefore thrilled to announce Entercom as a Houndify Domain Partner and are looking forward to providing Houndify users with access to their vast network of radio stations just by using their voice.”

The addition of RADIO.COM to our vast library of content domains is part of a larger strategy to bring the power of voice AI to every product, device, and application and to offer a robust library of domains to developers of voice assistants for their brands. In doing so, we believe that companies should be able to retain their brand integrity, own their data, and nurture their customer connections through an independent and agnostic voice AI platform that is fully customizable to their unique needs.
