Helios Joins Forces with Aiera to Offer Tonal Analysis

NEW YORK, August 18, 2021 - Helios Life Enterprises and Aiera, today announced they have joined forces to offer Helios’ Mercury technology via Aiera for all of the firm’s audio events. This partnership gives Aiera users an “alpha factor” that is voice-derived and looks to explain the overall positive and negative skew of any given audio.  

Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder, Sean Austin explains, "Aiera is a rising audio technology company in the financial services industry that realizes the power of tone. This unique partnership allows Aiera to utilize a bleeding-edge part of our platform we call Mercury. Essentially, we process any financial audio on the fly to derive unique speech analytics. These tonal values are being condensed down for this initial partnership so a simpler offering is possible."

Helios is the market leader in voice-based tonal analysis with several products that provide alternative data to investors. The combination of Aiera text-based sentiment and Helios tonal analysis helps investors gain conversational intelligence from corporate communications in near real time.

Tone of voice comprises almost 40% of human communication meaning textual and tonal context go hand-in-hand. The tonal sentiment from Helios’ Mercury product can be layered onto textually derived topic monitoring, speech-to-text transcription, one-click event access, collaboration, and research platform tooling, and more. Ultimately, the Helios layer helps bridge the gap between what is said and how it is said to deliver meaningful alpha to users.
