Voice AI that speaks Africa's languages.
YarnGPT gives developers, creators, and businesses studio-quality speech in the languages their audiences actually speak — starting with West Africa and building for the next billion users coming online.
Voice should belong to everyone — in every language.
Two billion people will come online over the next decade, and most of them won't speak the languages today's AI was built for.
Voice — the most natural way humans communicate — is still mostly locked to a handful of Western accents. We started YarnGPT to change that.
We train and tune voices for Yorùbá, Ìgbò, Hausa, Naija Pidgin, and English, with the warmth, rhythm, and pronunciation that make them feel real. Then we wrap them in tools anyone can use — a studio for creators, an API for developers, and dubbing for teams reaching new markets.
The result is voice technology that doesn't ask people to meet it halfway. It meets them in their own language.
One platform, every way to make voice.
From a single line of narration to a fully dubbed video, YarnGPT covers the whole journey from text to finished audio.

Five languages live and growing, each with multiple natural voices. We're adding more across the continent — tell us which one matters to you.

African languages first
Most voice AI treats our languages as an afterthought. We start with them — Yorùbá, Ìgbò, Hausa, Pidgin, and English — and we build for the accents and cadence people actually use.
Built for builders
Clear docs, sane defaults, and an API that does what you expect. We sweat the developer experience so you can focus on what you're shipping.
Quality you can trust
Natural prosody, consistent voices, and reliable uptime. Audio that's good enough to put your brand's name on.
Fair, transparent pricing
Pay for what you use, see exactly where it goes, and scale from a side project to production without surprises.
Give your words an African voice.
