The Sorenson OmniBridge Story
Born from lived experience. Built for real-world connection.
OmniBridge was started as an Intel incubator project in 2020 by Adam Munder, a Deaf innovator who saw the urgent need for technology that understands sign language. Inspired by his own experiences, he built OmniBridge to bridge communication gaps between Deaf and hearing—expanding access in places where interpreters aren’t always available, like restaurants, hotels, retail, and transportation hubs.
OmniBridge and Sorenson unify a shared mission
In 2024, OmniBridge became part of Sorenson, a world leader in language solutions to connect Deaf, hard-of-hearing, and hearing people.
Accessibility
Automated sign language translation is the next iteration of Sorenson’s mission to advance language accessibility with anytime, anywhere communication.
Innovation
Applying AI translation to sign language is the kind of forward thinking that drives Sorenson in furthering technology to enhance lives.
Connection
AI-powered translation builds another bridge to connection across languages not only in critical conversations, but everyday interaction.
Shaped by Signers. Powered by Purpose.
OmniBridge is a Deaf-led initiative shaped by the people it serves. Every element of our AI is informed by Deaf signers and real-world use cases.
The vision behind OmniBridge doesn’t stop at today’s use cases. Whether it’s expanding access at service counters or enabling new ways to interact on the go, we’re just beginning to unlock what’s possible. If you’re building for inclusion, we invite you to partner with us and help shape what comes next.
