On a mission to create better conversations

Our story

The origin

In the early 2000s, our CEO, Mariano led the largest virtual contact center certified by the U.S. government. In 2010, after Executive Order 13548 aimed to boost federal hiring of people with disabilities, he began connecting agencies with virtual call centers and recruiting through disability organizations. But concerns over the emotional impact of call center work—and no way to monitor well-being remotely—stalled progress, exposing a critical technology gap.

The breakthrough

Realizing call centers focused only on customer experience, Mariano saw the need to also understand the agent’s emotional state. A conversation with Vail Systems’ founder led to funding and collaboration to create “prosodic analytics”—technology that detects emotion in speech.

Where we are now

That breakthrough became Prosodica. Today, we help organizations unlock the full value of voice interactions—improving experiences for customers and employees across any communication-driven role.
