How It Works

H-ear is Audio Classification at enterprise scale; near real time and enriched for the consumer. H-ear does not teach or train. H-ear uses community ML Classification Models to parse your audio and give you annotation... with a special temporal H‑ear twist.
This is not speech-to-text. H-ear focuses on what is happening, not what is being said
