ÒreAyò
Currently in research and development

An AI assistant that speaks your language.

ÒreAyò is a voice-first AI system designed for Nigerian languages — starting with Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa.

Language should not be a barrier to technology.

Voice technology has advanced rapidly, but it still leaves millions of people behind.

Most voice assistants are built for a small set of global languages, often failing to understand local speech, accents, and everyday expressions.

ÒreAyò exists to bridge that gap — by starting with the languages Nigerian families already speak, not as an add-on, but as the foundation.

What is ÒreAyò?

Conversational by design

ÒreAyò is being built as a conversational voice assistant — designed to understand natural speech and respond clearly, without requiring technical knowledge.

Built for Nigerian languages

From tone and pronunciation to code-switching, ÒreAyò is designed with Nigerian languages and speech patterns in mind.

Human-centred

ÒreAyò prioritises clarity, accessibility, and ease of use — especially for parents, elders, and everyday users.
