At Aethir, we’re honored to support companies building the future—and today, we’re proud to welcome Respeecher, the AI voice synthesis pioneer, to our global GPU infrastructure platform.
Founded in 2018, Respeecher has reshaped how voices are created, preserved, and reimagined. Their technology allows creators to replicate any voice—capturing emotion, nuance, and tone with uncanny realism. This capability has enabled filmmakers to bring long-lost voices back to life, let game developers craft deeply immersive narratives, and helped musicians perform across languages and generations.
From the outset, Respeecher positioned itself at the intersection of AI and creative storytelling. After participating in the Comcast NBCUniversal LIFT Labs Accelerator and raising a $1.5 million seed round, they quickly made their mark on Hollywood. Their big break came in 2020 with The Mandalorian—where they generated the young voice of Luke Skywalker for a surprise finale appearance. It was a stunning moment that showed how synthetic speech could seamlessly blend into high-stakes, emotional storytelling.
Since then, Respeecher has been behind some of the most ambitious voice AI applications in the world. They helped recreate Vince Lombardi for a Super Bowl ad viewed billions of times. They gave James Earl Jones’s iconic Darth Vader voice a powerful new lease on life in Obi-Wan Kenobi, and their Emmy-winning work on In Event of Moon Disaster recreated President Nixon’s voice with chilling historical precision.
But their impact isn’t limited to Hollywood. In the gaming world, Respeecher earned the industry’s first-ever synthetic speech artist credit for their work on God of War: Ragnarök. They’ve also restored voices in Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, collaborated on multilingual music with Aloe Blacc, and powered dozens of audio performances in documentaries, biopics, and branded content.
Their recent involvement in award-winning films like The Best Man, Emilia Pérez, and The Brutalist—several of which garnered Golden Globes and Oscars—cements Respeecher’s place as one of the most important creative AI companies of our time. And with projects like Brown Revisited earning the 2025 ABA Silver Gavel Award, Respeecher’s ethical and emotional approach to voice synthesis continues to gain global recognition.
So why did Respeecher choose Aethir?
For them, performance isn’t optional—it’s mission-critical. High-fidelity speech synthesis demands not only top-tier GPUs, but also low-latency, real-time responsiveness. Aethir’s bare-metal infrastructure ensures maximum speed and efficiency for both model training and deployment. Just as importantly, our transparent pricing with no hidden bandwidth fees gives teams the freedom to scale creatively without worrying about unexpected costs. And with global infrastructure and 24/7 support, Respeecher can confidently build and launch projects around the clock.
We believe voice is one of the most powerful tools in storytelling—and Respeecher has become its most forward-thinking sculptor. We’re proud to fuel their growth and support their vision, and we can’t wait to hear what they create next.
Welcome to Aethir, Respeecher—let’s echo the future together.
