SANTA CLARA, Calif., Nov. 04, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- SoundHound AI and Ultraviolette Automotive have announced a significant expansion of their partnership, with SoundHound AI set to power Ultraviolette’s voice AI co-pilot across its global electric vehicle lineup. This development comes as Ultraviolette showcases its VIOLETTE A.I. at EICMA 2026, the world's largest motorcycle trade fair in Milan, Italy.

At the fair, Ultraviolette is highlighting VIOLETTE A.I., a first-of-its-kind voice AI co-pilot designed to enhance interaction with motorcycles through an audio-enabled helmet headset. Riders can now manage complex vehicle functions hands-free, including adjusting traction control, toggling ABS settings, and consulting the user manual, all by speaking to the motorcycle. This technology aims to set a new benchmark for two-wheeler safety and human-machine interaction.

Key features of VIOLETTE A.I. include dynamic ride and safety adjustments, intelligent pre-ride checks, interactive owner's manuals, and hands-free navigation and call management. The platform is engineered to enable riders to manage vehicle parameters on the fly, providing instant verbal reports on critical telemetry such as battery state-of-charge, range estimates, and tire health. Additionally, riders can ask operational questions mid-ride, receive immediate spoken instructions, and enjoy seamless media playback and call management optimized for high-wind in-helmet audio environments.

Ultraviolette, an innovator in future-ready electric vehicle platforms and battery technology, was conceived in 2016 by founders Narayan Subramaniam and Niraj Rajmohan. The company has expanded its global footprint, exporting to 20 countries including Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands, Italy, Switzerland, and Hungary. At EICMA, Ultraviolette is exhibiting at Pad 18, Stand E74, where visitors can experience VIOLETTE A.I. in action.

SoundHound AI, a global leader in voice and agentic AI, is leveraging its proprietary technology backed by 800+ patents and years of AI research to deliver fast, highly accurate voice technology.

The partnership between SoundHound AI and Ultraviolette Automotive aims to revolutionize the way riders interact with their motorcycles, making everyday functions simpler and more intuitive. By integrating voice technology into the riding experience, Ultraviolette is setting a new standard for safety and convenience in the electric motorcycle market.
