Raoul Ritter is the Founder & CEO of Reson8, determined to solve generic speech and driven by the conviction that today's models fail to capture the uniqueness of every conversation. After a few years at Adyen during its hyper-growth phase, Raoul joined Tessian's ex Head of AI to focus on model fine-tuning, building out of frustration with the models he'd had access to until then. He later met Thomas, who was building Juvoly at the time - a medical scribe used by 60% of dutch GPs (since acquired by Tandem Health). Together, they set out to build Reson8, the speech AI layer engineered for the full complexity of European languages. They're now outperforming major players, topping benchmarks across Hugging Face, Artificial Analysis and Voice Arena.
