\tApple reportedly bolstered its Siri digital assistant with the acquisition of Voysis, an AI start-up which aims to improve how software responds to human voice commands.<\/p>\n

Neither company offered an official statement, however an Apple representative told Bloomberg, which broke news of the tie-up, it \u201cbuys smaller technology companies from time to time, and we generally do not discuss our purpose or plans\u201d.<\/p>\n

A Voysis company webpage has been pulled down. Financial terms of the deal were not reported.<\/p>\n

Voysis, which is based in Dublin, developed technology to improve digital voice assistants and sold its services to several companies since it was founded in 2012.<\/p>\n

Specifically, Voysis helps companies using shopping applications to respond better to voice commands, narrowing searches based on a few short phrases.<\/p>\n

Bloomberg reported the company\u2019s system uses WaveNet, an AI-based technology first developed by Google\u2019s DeepMind.<\/p>\n

For Apple, the company could look to use Voysis to help Siri better understand natural language, as it looks to compete with Google\u2019s Assistant and Amazon\u2019s Alexa.<\/p>\n

There is also scope for Apple to integrate Voysis\u2019 tech into hundreds of third-party apps which already integrate with Siri.<\/p>\n

The deal represents Apple\u2019s second acquisition in the last week, following its buy of the Dark Sky [1] weather app.<\/p>\n
