Hacker Interstellar, which provides a voice-centric AI-powered social media app in emerging markets, filed on Friday with the SEC to raise up to $15 million in an initial public offering.

The company operates a vernacular language AI–powered voice social networking platform focused on users in emerging markets. Through its YoYo app, it provides voice-based chat room experiences built on proprietary AI voice models tailored to regional languages and dialects. The platform combines social interaction with monetization features and is expanding into AI-driven voice tools and B2B solutions, positioning itself as a voice interaction infrastructure provider for diverse language communities globally.

The Hong Kong, China-based company was founded in 2016 and plans to list on the Nasdaq under the symbol SOUD. Hacker Interstellar filed confidentially on July 18, 2025. Kingswood Capital Markets and Long Bridge Securities are the joint bookrunners on the deal. No pricing terms were disclosed.
