Cisco acquired EzDubs, a Y Combinator-backed consumer startup that provides real-time translation services, for an undisclosed amount. EzDubs was founded in 2023 by Padmanabhan Krishnamurthy, Amrutavarsh Kinagi, and Kareem Nassar, who previously worked in Cisco's Speech AI group. The startup raised $4.2 million in seed funding led by Venture Highway with participation from investors including Replit executives and Qasar Younis. Cisco intends to integrate EzDubs technology into Cisco Collaboration hardware and software, enabling live translation that preserves the speaker's original voice and potentially exposing the capability to partners and developers. EzDubs will sunset its consumer apps by December 15.
