VoxSmart acquires GreenKey Technologies to expand NLP capabilities
London/New York – 28th September 2021 – VoxSmart Ltd., the global leader in communications surveillance, has announced the acquisition of GreenKey Technologies Inc., the industry-leading automated speech recognition (“ASR”) and natural language processing (“NLP”) provider, to further bolster its communications surveillance offering to global financial institutions.
The addition of GreenKey’s domain-specific communication analysis expertise will enable VoxSmart to rapidly accelerate growth and position the company as the de facto market leaders in natural language processing (NLP) and voice analytics for Financial Markets.
Commenting on the deal, Oliver Blower, CEO of VoxSmart said: “By acquiring GreenKey, we have added an extremely valuable asset to our product portfolio enabling us to provide even greater value and deeper insights to our clients. We continue to be extremely well positioned to help the market consolidate their surveillance assets with our unique ‘one platform’ approach”.

They have the breadth and depth of reach within this sector to take the technology to the next level.”
