00:17 Vasisht of Sonan Technologies created VoiceDevice.
00:22 It was created in December 2017 with an initial investment
00:27 of 350,000 rupees and an additional funding
00:32 of 700,000 rupees.
00:34 But how does it work?
00:36 Let's ask founder Abhinav Shekhar Vasisht.
00:41 I had a neighbor who was deaf.
00:46 So I knew that deaf people face a lot of problem
00:49 when they communicate with hearing people.
00:51 So I thought of making technological tools
00:53 to help them in communicating with hearing people.
00:56 I started working on voice as a hobby project
00:58 and later on incorporated Sonan Technologies' private limited.
01:03 The device supports 80 Indian languages
01:06 and is priced at 20,000 to 25,000 rupees.
01:11 The startup expects FY21 revenue of 15 million rupees.
