Speak your Language

We train African data curators, create custom language datasets and build tools that foster Africa's inclusion in AI technology

The Challenge

Most AI models cannot understand African languages due to insufficient training data, leaving many communities behind.

Scaling AI across African languages is nearly impossible without access to trained native speakers and data quality validation tools.

Businesses lose customers and revenue in multilingual markets, yet most voice translation apps prioritize only major global languages.

How we Help

Dataset Marketplace: Browse open-source datasets or purchase premium African language collections

Custom Dataset Curation: Commission bespoke African speech and text datasets for your specific AI training or evaluation needs.

Trained Linguist Network: Hire vetted, trained African language experts for translation, annotation, and validation projects.
