Company Description
Send any data with sound.

• Encode and decode information in real-time, without external components
• Good fit for compact, dynamic payloads - appropriate for creating network-like communication links between devices
• Relatively high throughput making it suitable security-critical applications
Developer friendly
Easy to set up and integrate in an app or product.
