Combining the power of Hiya’s Adaptive AI fraud prevention system with advanced AI voice detection, offers businesses and carriers the most comprehensive fraud call protection available in the industry today. See our new deep fake voice detection technology in action –[request a demo](https://hiya.demo.loccus.ai/signup). Voice deepfakes, also known as voice-cloning scams, use AI to impersonate people, making them appear to say things they did not. As the most sophisticated deepfake voice detector globally, Loccus.ai can identify AI-generated voices with just 1.5 seconds of audio, alerting users to scams in real-time. Loccus.ai’s cutting-edge technology is now available as Hiya AI Voice Detection. The solution is versatile, supporting multiple languages, formats, and platforms, including video recordings and live calls across all devices. > “The acquisition of Loccus.ai creates a tremendous opportunity for us to offer the most complete and intelligent voice protection solution. The Loccus.ai team are experts in AI-generated voice detection. By bringing together the power of the Hiya Voice Security Platform with Loccus.ai’s deepfake voice detection, our solutions are ready for the era of GenAI.” - Hiya CEO and Founder Alex Algard. With the rise of deepfakes and video impersonation scams, which use AI voice cloning, consumers and businesses face a growing threat of voice fraud. In 2023, 45% of consumers reported receiving a call from someone impersonating a legitimate business according to the [State of the Call 2024 report](https://www.hiya.com/state-of-the-call). Additionally, 27% of US consumers and 18% of UK consumers believe they were targeted by an AI deepfake voice scam between April and July this year, according to our research conducted with OnePoll in July 2024. > “We are thrilled to be joining Hiya in the fight against voice spam and fraud. Joining Hiya allows us to help more customers leverage Loccus.ai voice detection with the industry-leading voice security offering, as we scale to 500+ million global users across the Hiya network.” - Loccus.ai CEO and Founder Manel Terraza. Businesses and carriers can immediately integrate Hiya AI Voice Detection into their services and applications to enhance consumer trust and security. This technology can be used to identify deepfake audio in personal communication apps, news and social media content, video conferencing, contact center platforms, and more.  Visit our [product page](https://www.hiya.com/products/ai-voice) to learn more about Hiya AI Voice Detection.
