About
Snips was a French AI startup founded in 2013 by three PhDs that built a privacy-first voice assistant platform for connected devices. Its technology enabled on-device speech recognition, natural language understanding, and dialog management—allowing device makers to add custom voice commands without sending user data to the cloud. Snips operated offices in Paris, New York, and Tokyo before being acquired by Sonos in November 2019 for approximately $37.5 million, with the technology integrated into Sonos's audio products.
