We build the translation APIs, NLP tools, and language models that enable organizations to operate in African languages at scale.
To build production-grade AI infrastructure for every African language — starting with the most underserved. We believe the next billion internet users will speak languages that AI doesn't understand yet. MEYNG is building the bridge.
A future where every African language has production-quality NLP tools — translation APIs, speech recognition, and language models — accessible to any developer, organization, or government that needs them.
Africa has 2,000+ languages spoken by 1.4 billion people. Less than 5% have basic NLP tools. Google Translate supports 134+ languages — fewer than 25 are African, and most with limited depth. The gap between basic translation coverage and production-grade language infrastructure is where MEYNG operates. This isn't a niche. It's the largest untapped market in language AI.

Community-verified vocabulary database, published vocabulary-augmented prompting methodology, and production infrastructure that took years to build. The moat is data quality and cultural authority — not just compute.
Founded by a Central African native speaker with deep linguistic expertise. Our data quality comes from cultural understanding, not just computation.
First to publish Sango NLP tools, first to deploy a Sango AI API, first to ship a WhatsApp bot for Sango learning. Network effects compound.
Built on world-class foundation models, published openly for AI community visibility, deployed on the world's largest messaging platform for maximum reach across Africa.
Founder & CEO
Software engineer and AI entrepreneur. Native Sango speaker from the Central African Republic. Built SangoAI from zero to production — scalable cloud infrastructure, published NLP toolkit, native speaker audio program, and vocabulary-augmented prompting research. Invited by BPI France to Africa Forward Summit, Nairobi 2026. Based in Paris.
Incorporated in Paris. Began building the first Sango NLP pipeline and training data collection.
Production API deployed on cloud infrastructure. Translation, chat, and learning platform launched at sangoai.sbs with enterprise-grade scalability.
Open-source NLP toolkit published for developers. Vocabulary-augmented prompting methodology and 581-word Sango lexicon released openly. Sango becomes a documented NLP research language.
eNdara learning bot published on Meta. Any WhatsApp user can message to learn Sango. First real-world deployment proof beyond web.
We're raising pre-seed funding to scale from 1 language to 5, hire our first NLP engineers, and close our first enterprise contracts. The market is massive, the timing is now.
