Allbirds Modernizes Software Delivery with Cartesia
Allbirds, a consumer discretionary organization in the United States, uses Sonic from Cartesia to support engineering for developers.
A Sonic rollout at Allbirds took engineering out of inboxes and into a named queue.
“Allbirds is based in the United States and runs consumer discretionary operations at a scale where software delivery cannot live in side channels.”
“Developers were reconciling competing copies of the same work, which slowed engineering and hid who owned the next step.”

Value results

| Productivity | Handoffs in engineering sit in a shared queue instead of a mailbox trail |
| Risk and compliance | Sonic is the governed place developers use for engineering |
| Capability | New joiners can see how engineering actually runs |
Story
Allbirds is based in the United States and runs consumer discretionary operations at a scale where software delivery cannot live in side channels. Developers were reconciling competing copies of the same work, which slowed engineering and hid who owned the next step.
The company runs engineering on Cartesia, with Sonic as the product developers actually open. Cartesia develops real-time voice AI, including Sonic text-to-speech and Ink speech-to-text, for conversational products and agents. For Allbirds, that means developers can open one workflow, see software delivery, and let neighboring teams join without inventing a parallel stack.
Public materials confirm the companies and products. They do not always publish a single verified KPI for this pairing, so the outcome here is operational: clearer ownership, fewer stalled handoffs, and a shared record for software delivery.
