Pulse Labs went through the original Alexa Accelerator and raised their initial $120,000 through that experience. Now, the tech company has raised $2.5 million as they continue their mission to make voice assistants across the board. Abhishek Suthan is the CEO of Pulse Labs. Suthan joins Cheddar to explain how the tech company is bringing a unique and genuine voice experience to various voice assistant apps. Pulse Labs works closely with brands because companies have realized that having a "voice strategy" is an important move for the future. Over the past month, Pulse Labs has helped over 20 brands launch on the Amazon Alexa app. When asked how much it costs for a brand to have a voice strategy, Suthan says that the average is around a couple hundred thousand dollars.

Poll: More Americans think companies benefit from legal immigration
A new poll finds U.S. adults are more likely than they were a year ago to think immigrants in the country legally benefit the economy. That comes as President Donald Trump's administration imposes new restrictions targeting legal pathways into the country. The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research survey finds Americans are more likely than they were in March 2024 to say it’s a “major benefit” that people who come to the U.S. legally contribute to the economy and help American companies get the expertise of skilled workers. At the same time, perceptions of illegal immigration haven’t shifted meaningfully. Americans still see fewer benefits from people who come to the U.S. illegally.

Trump told pregnant women not to use the painkiller around a dozen times during the White House news conference Monday. The drugmaker tumbled 7.5%. Shares have regained most of those losses early Tuesday in premarket trading.
