Reykjavik-based Treble raises €11 million to construct the sound of our cities

Treble, a next-generation sound simulation and artificial audio knowledge era expertise firm, has raised €11 million in a Sequence A spherical. The spherical was led by KOMPAS VC, an early-stage VC agency centered on the constructed surroundings with participation from Iceland’s main enterprise capital agency Frumtak Ventures, the European Funding Financial institution, Omega Enterprise Companions, strategic companions St. Gobain & L-Acoustics, in addition to skilled angel buyers. 

The funding might be used to increase the Treble group, improve R&D efforts, forge new enterprise purchasers, and faucet into new markets.

Designing sound for buildings, automobiles and tech merchandise has historically been an costly enterprise due to an absence of easy-to-use and correct simulation options that may be built-in into the design course of. When buildings or merchandise fail to fulfill the required acoustic requirements, changes could be time-consuming and expensive.

The World Well being Group has said that noise is the second most dangerous environmental stressor affecting human well being. With the fast development of AI-based audio fashions in voice expertise, generative AI and augmented actuality, the shortage of audio coaching knowledge has turn out to be a serious bottleneck. 

Sound simulation

Treble was based in 2020 by acoustic engineers Dr Finnur Pind and Jesper Pedersen. After near a decade of researching sound simulation expertise, the group launched the Treble platform in 2023, the world’s first cloud-based sound simulation and artificial audio knowledge era platform. Powered by the corporate’s proprietary simulation expertise, which has been benchmarked to be greater than 100x sooner than current sound simulation options, it allows a variety of industries to deliver down prices and notice higher sounding environments, services.

Inside a yr since launch, Treble is being utilized by a few of the largest and most prestigious firms on the planet inside tech, buildings, audio and automotive, together with three of the 5 main international tech giants and the world’s largest engineering consulting corporations. 

Dr Finnur Pind, Founder & CEO, Treble stated: “The world may sound so significantly better than what it presently does. Our mission at Treble is to offer the software program instruments essential to make the world a greater sounding and fewer noisy place. This, in flip, will considerably enhance well being, well-being and productiveness throughout the globe, and improve individuals’s skills to attach with each other. This Sequence A funding marks a major second for Treble, affirming our position as main innovators throughout the audio area. Along with our companions and clients, we’re now set to increase our affect, bringing superior audio options to customers in all places as we develop the way forward for sound, create extra resonant areas and deeper audio engagements.”

Commenting on the funding, Sebastian Peck, Associate, KOMPAS, added: “Our funding in Treble displays our dedication to making a constructed surroundings that’s each wholesome and sustainable. We firmly imagine Treble is main the way in which to a better-sounding world with its revolutionary expertise which opens up a complete new means of prototyping and testing merchandise.
