Africa is home to over 2,000 languages, accounting for one-third of the world's total languages. Despite their vast cultural and linguistic significance, African languages remain largely underrepresented in modern technology, from messaging apps to AI systems.
This digital divide leaves millions of speakers without access to essential tools, services, and resources in their native languages.
At the African Languages Lab, we’re advancing NLP for African languages. By building the largest multimodal dataset, creating specialized models and translation systems, and supporting emerging researchers, we’re making African languages central to global AI — driving preservation, inclusion, and opportunity.
Our data pipeline is designed to ensure the efficient collection, processing, and deployment of high-quality linguistic data for African languages. By leveraging advanced tools and methodologies, we gather multimodal datasets through our crowdsourcing platform and meticulously refine them for AI training.
This pipeline enables us to build robust, scalable models that address the unique challenges of low-resource languages, ensuring accurate, high-performance solutions for a wide range of applications."
Focuses on foundational development, where interns become proficient in our technical infrastructure and research methodologies.
Centers on guided research, allowing interns to work closely with experienced researchers on ongoing projects
Transitions to independent project development, where interns lead their research initiatives while receiving strategic guidance.
Our Ambassador Program invites passionate individuals to contribute to the future of African languages by volunteering to help fine-tune data and assist with data research and collection. As an ambassador, you’ll play a crucial role in enhancing the quality and diversity of our datasets, directly impacting the development of AI solutions that empower African languages.
Join a vibrant community of like-minded individuals and be a part of the movement to bring African languages into the digital age.
Unlock the full potential of your data with powerful AI. From custom model training to translation and chatbots, we turn your data into scalable solutions. Let us handle the complexity while you focus on innovation and growth.
