Unusual ventures led financing in which he participated, among others, Neo, 25madison and business angels from corporations comparable to Ramp, PubMatic, Atlassian AND Google.

Miravoice has developed an AI interviewer that it says can conduct telephone surveys and voice interviews for “precise data collection” without the involvement of interviewers. The surveys are long-term and quantitative, some contain over 120 questions and last over 40 minutes. These include open-ended responses, numerical data, multiple-choice questions, Likert scales, and matrix questions.

“Imagine talking to 100,000 people and immediately capturing what they know,” said CEO and co-founder Nishant Jain. “We make it as easy as creating a Google form.”

Voice interviews have long been the gold standard for rigorous data collection, but the costs and operational difficulties of talking to people have made it tougher, Jain says.

“The need to employ a call center has made conducting quantitative research unfeasible for most organizations,” he said.

Miravoice says its agent is designed to be easy for anyone to implement and requires no technical knowledge to operate.

A user can create a questionnaire, search for a phone number and trigger a trained voice agent “to get results in hours, not weeks,” Jain said.

Many languages ​​and “dirty reality”

According to Jain, Miravoice places great importance on precision.

“Unlike other voice agent companies, we focus on structured conversations where most of the questions are known in advance,” he explained. “Our clients know what information they want in advance, so we focus on extracting as much information from respondents as possible while minimizing bias.”

He said that the Miravoice agent would ask every query in the survey without hallucinatory answers.

“And when chaotic things come up in human conversations, like pauses or pauses, our AI handles them seamlessly,” Jain said.

Miravoice Interviewer is also multilingual by design, which Jain says is difficult for individual call centers to realize.

Using a Miravoice agent is also cheaper than hiring and training a call center to conduct the same surveys, Jain says. The platform supports each outgoing and incoming calls if the respondent calls back at any time of the day.

Idea and business model

Miravoice was founded by Jain, Danny D. Leybzon AND Shreyas Tirumalathree close friends from California who have known each other for over a decade.

The idea for Miravoice got here from direct experience scaling quantitative research in product manager and consultant roles. They realized that voice agent technology can be the method to handle these calls in the future, “if agents are properly created for the unique needs of this market application.”

According to the company, Miravoice has 10 to twenty customers in various stages from paid pilot to production use cases. These clients include a variety of opinion polling organizations, market research firms, university departments, and private corporations in the retail, entertainment, and logistics industries.

Its revenue model is based on usage-based billing: customers pay for the time that AI agents are actually on the phone with respondents.

The number of calls made by Miravoice in 2025 exceeded 100,000 and expects the number to be much higher this yr.

“What’s exciting about the space we operate in is that the scale of the number of calls our platform needs to handle exceeds most other use cases for voice agents,” Jain said. “Our pilot projects alone represent tens of thousands of calls: more than the monthly production load of some voice agent companies. Some of our customers expect to make millions to tens of millions of calls per year once fully implemented and implemented.”

Voice artificial intelligence is growing in strength

Lars Albrightgeneral partner at Unusual Ventures, said his company was impressed by the founding team’s technical expertise and product vision.

According to Albright, Miravoice’s focus on accurate data collection sets it apart from most other entrants into the voice agent market research space.

“They correctly determined that voice AI can streamline operations and reduce the time it takes to gain insight in large-scale quantitative research,” he wrote in an email.

Another area where Miravoice excels is in its ease of use, he said.

“Many voice agent platforms are aimed at technical audiences and software developers,” Albright said. “Miravoice was built from the ground up with simplicity in mind so that truly any team can use it. It’s a step-change feature that makes AI voice agents for surveys as ubiquitous as web forms today.”

Voice AI startups have stood out in the vast AI space, attracting the attention of investors around the world, in keeping with Crunchbase data. Over the past two years, valuations of several voice AI corporations have tripled, a signal of growing market demand and perceived long-term value.

One example of a voice AI company that saw a huge jump in valuation is Eleven laboratoriesthat permits creators, businesses and others to make use of AI software to copy voices in dozens of languages. The Brooklyn, New York-based startup went from achieving unicorn status with an $80 million Series B raise in January 2024 to a valuation of around $3.3 billion a yr later, with a $180 million Series C raise co-led by The capital of Iconiq AND Andreessen Horowitz. Then, in February this yr, he raised $500 million in a Series D round he led Capital of Sequoia at a valuation of $11 billion.
