ABOUT US
How We Started
After graduating from Harvard in 1993, Daryl attended USMC Officer Candidate School, where he learned the power of voice to inspire and lead. Returning to the civilian world, Daryl dove into technology, helping launch CNN.com website in 1996.
After years in the startup world, Daryl went home to New Hampshire to teach Computer Science at Plymouth State College. He returned to the business world in 2012, to work on experimental web interfaces, and in 2017 started working on ways to deepen customer engagement through voice.
Daryl teamed up with startup colleague Derek Dodge to create the concept of voice destinations, to help brands let their voice engage.
Many large industry players such as Google, Apple and Amazon are engaged in a battle for voice assistant market share dominance.
50% of all searches are done with voice vs text.
70% of young people use voice search every day.
A Voice Destination® gives brands another way to distinguish themselves and own the conversation with their audiences
WHAT PEOPLE SAY
You've gotta take that step, this is the price of poker. There is no future that doesn't have ambient computing or voice activation, NONE.
Mark Cuban
If I were 16 years old, I would learn voice assistant stuff and learn how to create scripts. Then go to my neighbors’ homes ... and charge $30 an hour to set it up in their house.

In a decade, a percentage of people will buy their product, goods, and services on a voice-first device.
