S9 E21: Matt Hocking, WellSaid Labs

Matt Hocking has a background in design, and started off as a graphic designer in Australia. He moved into lecturing while running a design school, which led him to New York and the startup community. He is a multi founder, which led him to his current venture. Outside of tech and startups, he is a family man, and loves to spend time with his kids - which he calls his startup outside of his startup. He enjoys building and drawing with his son, and doing the best he can to support his young daughter in becoming a princess one day. In 2018, Matt met his co-founder when joining AI2. While he was working on deep learning projects, Matt was working on a user centered, voice based experience in healthcare. When they put both things together, they figured out they could really help people and save hours of studio time by generating voiceovers with AI. This is the creation story of WellSaid Labs.
