Licensing Essency Apps
Founded in 2008, Essency is an audio specialist software company with unique patented technology, targeting mainstream consumers and hardware manufacturers.
The founders of Essency are highly experienced engineers who have worked in all aspects of professional audio and with computers and digital audio since the days of the Moog Synthesiser.
Initially a developer of Apps for Apple’s iOS, Essency now code for Android and plan to add the WindowsPhone and Blackberry platforms. Desktop versions of core products are planned for Mac OSX and Windows.
Some products we expect to be individually demand driven, others like Awareness!® we believe will become industry standards, driven by legislation and liability, if not responsibility.
The first Essency app Awareness!® The Headphone App is on iTunes, Google Play and Amazon. Some custom app versions have been licensed and codebase modules have been licensed to build into 3rd party applications.
