Beyond multi-device audio sharing, Tempow is a dedicated Bluetooth research and development lab catering to the needs of hardware and chipset manufacturers looking to enhance Bluetooth technology. The startup operates several engineering teams focused on developing new software-only solutions to enhance every Bluetooth-enabled experience from smart home assistants, to conference calling, to living room entertainment and gaming.
