Two new innovative projects win the second stage of Venture Kick

25.08.2016

Two spin-off projects of ETH Zurich won the second stage of our program in August 2016: Sound-Proof and ATANA Engineering. Both teams win CHF 20’000 each and they are now pledging CHF 100’000 more at the finals in a few months’ time! They can hopefully count on the support of the kickers camps to come up with the perfect business case and convince the Venture Kick jury.

Sound-Proof (Internet, Mobile) – ETH Zurich
Secure your data with the noise around you!
Sound-Proof checks the proximity of the user’s phone to the device being used to log in. The proximity of the two devices is verified by our AI-enhanced algorithms that compare the ambient noise recorded by their microphones. Audio recording and comparison are fast and invisible to the end-user. Sound-Proof can be easily deployed as it works with major browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Edge) without plugins.

Demo available
The startup just released the Sound-Proof demo for Android. Anyone can now register on their demo page or check this link for more information.
