Deepgram’s $130 million Series C at a $1.3 billion valuation positions the company as the foundational API platform for the emerging B2B Voice AI economy, with over 1,300 organizations already building voice AI functionality on its real-time infrastructure.

Led by AVP with participation from existing investors including Alkeon, Tiger, Wing, and strategic partners like Twilio, ServiceNow, and SAP, the funding accelerates Deepgram’s mission to become the “Stripe of Voice AI”—delivering the critical infrastructure layer that enables billions of simultaneous voice conversations at human-level naturalness and reliability.
