Async

AI video and voice platform (formerly Podcastle) serving both creators and developers — a chat-based AI video editor plus an API for engineering teams building voice agents. Founded as a podcasting/audio platform with its own voice model, it rebranded to Async in early 2026 and repositioned into AI video as the audio market narrowed and video generation boomed. Leysan Zigangirova is CMO.
