- The management disclosed on the call that it is nearly fully integrated with two tech platform giants to offer our voice ordering to their many millions of users.
- Retail chatter on the SoundHound stream climbed nearly 700% over the seven days leading up to late Sunday.
- The stock’s short interest is fairly elevated at 25.20%, positioning it well for a short-squeeze-driven rally.

Notwithstanding the better-than-expected fiscal year third-quarter results and the guidance hike for the full year, SoundHound stock ended Friday’s session down 0.63%, pulling back along with the broader market.
