Going multi-platform for cross-device accessibility
Audioburst is an AI-based personalized audio news search engine with playlists. Nomtek worked with Audioburst to help the company build apps for mobile phones and cars.
Audioburst created an AI-powered system that searches through a vast audio content library to index and segment valuable pieces. Audioburst’s technology uses natural language processing and speech recognition to deliver highly personalized listening experiences with short-form audio content.
You simply say "tell me more about Joe Rogan" and Audioburst will prepare a playlist with news bits about Joe Rogan.
Initially, Audioburst was operating as a web solution only. But the idea quickly took off among users, who appreciated the personalized audio stream with news and podcasts. Soon, the company looked to expand and start delivering its offer via mobile applications.
Scope of Work
Audioburst was a full-cycle development project where we worked on all aspects, from design, to frontend, backend, and QA. Our team extend the company's AI-powered audio news search engine from a web-only solution to a comprehensive mobile and automotive application experience.
Design and Development for Android
Initiating the project by designing and developing a native mobile application for Android, leveraging Audioburst's AI technology to create a personalized audio experience. The design encompassed both the smartphone application and the car infotainment system.
Expansion to iOS and Automotive Platforms
Extending our services to include the development of native applications for iOS, CarPlay, and Android Auto, ensuring a seamless and integrated user experience across multiple platforms. To enable the talk personalization feature, we worked on the backend and artificial intelligence algorithms. All this we packed into a user-friendly mobile frontend.
Comprehensive QA Testing
Throughout testing was necessary for the application to run seamlessly on all the four platforms: iOS, Android, CarPlay, and Android Auto.
Solution
Audioburst needed a highly usable and fast app that could leverage the huge potential of the AI-based audio content search engine. Since we already worked with Audioburst’s CEO in the past, he chose us again to design and develop mobile apps.
Using Audioburst, users can explore playlists on any topic and for every mood. AI algorithm learns about user preferences to customize the listening experience. Voice search helps find topics of interest faster.
Our partnership started with designing and developing a mobile app for Android. Soon enough the project expanded. We were asked to create native apps for iOS, CarPlay, and Android Auto.
We built all apps from scratch, working on the design, backend, and QA testing.
"We consider nomtek a partner, not just a vendor. They understand our limitations and problems. Nomtek designed and developed our iOS and Android app. Their deliverables meet our expectations and we are happy with them. We talk nearly every day following an Agile methodology and release on average a version weekly."
