UW AI Startup Unleashes Superhuman Hearing Tech

AI-Enhanced Hearing Breakthrough

University of Washington alum Xuan Yang co-founded CoPilot, a startup that uses AI to drastically improve hearing clarity by isolating voices in noisy environments. The system is inspired by real-time signal processing research and mimics how humans naturally tune into important sounds.

Revolutionizing Audio Solutions

CoPilot’s prototype, currently tested on iPhones, could soon be integrated into hearing aids or earbuds, offering transformative improvements for people with hearing loss. Backed by AI experts and seed funding, the startup is developing both mobile and embedded silicon solutions for broader application.
