MultiKol is focused on providing exceptional protection for people, assets, and data through its voice-based biometric authentication technology. The company is developing biometric solutions to identify speakers according to the different characteristics of their voices.

Current authentication methods rely on something known (e.g., a password), something owned (e.g., a credit card), a personal identifier (e.g., a fingerprint), or a locator (e.g., a GPS location). In addition to these factors, MultiKol's technology analyzes the user's state of mind. For example, if the user's voice indicates that they are sleepy or drunk, they will not be allowed to start or drive a car or to operate dangerous machinery.
