Why voice

Your voice is
your first introduction.

It can earn trust like a news anchor's, or make a room laugh like a good host's. Calm, careful, light. A voice carries the person behind it.

A voice that makes the first impression

A voice that expresses who you are

A voice that connects you with others

More about VocalDNA

Everyday

How your voice
shapes everyday life

A single word, a single song. Your voice is with you in more moments than you think.

01

A voice that earns trust

In a presentation or an interview, a calm, clear voice makes what you say more convincing.

02

A voice that lifts the room

A bright voice makes the people around you smile. Every voice has its own warmth.

03

A day eased by song

Humming on the way home, one song with friends. While you sing, the day feels lighter.

04

A voice that stays clear

"What a strong voice you have!" As that greeting to an older relative suggests, a clear voice is part of a healthy life.

Founder

Kim Yiseo, founder of Bureum

Kim YiseoFounder & CEO · Vocal director

"Every first lesson started the same way:
finding out what kind of voice you have."

Knowing your voice and finding songs and practice that fit it is the foundation of voice training. Yet even professionals find it hard to judge their own voice objectively, and there were few concrete standards to use in the room. Bureum connects about twenty years of listening to voices with AI, so that anyone can understand their voice in more concrete terms.

OUR VISION

Listening to voices more closely,
to make everyday life better.

To tell voices apart the way a trained ear does and analyze them more precisely. To use that to help everyone speak with more confidence, sing with more joy and stay healthily connected for years to come. That is where Bureum is headed.
