Ocular AI says frontier models still need high-fidelity real-world data that preserves accents, interruptions, turn-taking, emotion, and expert judgment, while existing open full-duplex work often relies on limited telephone speech corpora. The company says top frontier AI labs and Fortune 100 enterprises already train and evaluate on its data, revenue is in the seven figures, its Expert Network has thousands of vetted experts, and its $2 million pre-seed led by Drive Capital is funding the applied-research and data network behind that effort.
