5 Siri, Inc.
If you’ve ever used an iPhone or iPad before, then you’ve likely heard of (or have perhaps even spoken to) Siri at some point in time. Believe it or not, Apple acquired Siri, Inc., the company responsible for creating the voice-driven personal assistant software, back in 2010 for a hefty $200 million. Though she made her inaugural debut on the iPhone 4s, Siri has ultimately been brought to a wide range of Apple Products including the Apple Watch, Mac computers, the Apple TV, and will be the central feature of Apple’s upcoming Siri speaker, HomePod.
