AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Oracle today
announced that SoundHound Inc., a global leader in voice artificial
intelligence (AI), has selected Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI)

millions of products from leading global brands, including Hyundai,
Mercedes-Benz, Pandora, Deutsche Telekom, Snap, VIZIO, KIA, and
Stellantis. By providing a high-performance cloud infrastructure,
OCI will help SoundHound process more than 100 million queries each
month—a number which doubled in the last six months—with queries
projected to exceed 1 billion in 2021 alone.
