Reimagining Voice for the AI Age

Norwood Systems’ mission is to transform the world’s telephone networks into intelligent, conversational experiences. We fuse decades‑deep carrier engineering with breakthrough generative‑AI research to deliver cloud‑native platforms that sense, think and act in the moment – amplifying the power of human voice and data.

Founded and headquartered in Perth and publicly listed on the ASX (NOR), we partner with forward‑looking telecommunication service providers who refuse to be relegated to simply supplying commodity bandwidth. Our flagship platform, OpenSpan, equips them to launch revenue‑ready AI voice and messaging services in weeks, not years, so they can out‑innovate OTT rivals, delight customers, and unlock entirely new business models.

We are driven by a simple conviction: when networks become truly cognitive, communication barriers evaporate and possibilities multiply. Join us as we build that future.

Our Purpose & Vision

Purpose — To strip the complexity out of communications, making them intelligent and accessible to everyone.

Vision — A world in which every network senses, thinks and acts in real time, amplifying the power of human voice and data.

From our base in Perth – and active across Asia‑Pacific, the Americas and EMEA – Norwood fuses deep telecoms engineering with cutting‑edge AI research. Over the past decade, we have delivered carrier‑grade voice platforms that have been used in more than 200 countries and territories by more than 7 million end users.
