Kahn — Voice AI
for West Africa

A voice AI model built specifically for West African markets — conversing natively in Mandinka, Pular, and Susu. Kahn bridges the communication gap to unlock education and business at scale across the region.

Early Access

Are you an NGO, educator, business owner, or community organisation operating in West Africa? Enter your email and we'll notify you when early access opens for Mandinka, Pular, and Susu deployments.

No spam. One email when access opens.

"Competing at the highest level teaches you one thing — how to win. That doesn't stop when you leave the field. It just finds a bigger stage."

Griot was built by a championship-winning D1 lacrosse player — one of the most decorated in his program's history — who spent four years at the frontier of AI sales at 6Sense, LinkedIn, and Gong, before making the deliberate choice to stop selling the future and start building it.

We combine deep sales DNA with hands-on technical expertise to deliver AI solutions that don't just look good on a slide — they generate real, measurable results for the businesses we work with.

Our Expertise

End-to-end AI solutions.
Zero fluff.

We don't consult from a distance. We build alongside you — from the initial audit to deployment and beyond.

AI Strategy & Roadmapping

Before building anything, we audit where your business stands and map the highest-leverage AI opportunities. You get a clear, prioritized plan — not a 60-page deck that collects dust.

Built for West Africa

Meet
Kahn.

A voice AI model built specifically for West Africa — speaking Mandinka, Pular, and Susu natively. Kahn exists to bridge the communication gap and unlock access to education, commerce, and opportunity across the region.

Built for West Africa

Bridging language.
Unlocking opportunity.

Most AI has been built for English-speaking, Western markets. Kahn is different — it is purpose-built for the Mandinka, Pular, and Susu-speaking communities of West Africa, where voice is the primary interface and the communication gap is one of the biggest barriers to education and economic growth.

Native Language Intelligence

Kahn speaks Mandinka, Pular, and Susu natively — not as translations, but as first-class languages. Built from the ground up for the way these communities actually communicate.

Education Access

Delivers educational content, literacy support, and learning resources through conversational voice — reaching communities where written interfaces create barriers to entry.

Business & Commerce

Enables small businesses, traders, and entrepreneurs to handle customer inquiries, bookings, and transactions by voice — in their own language, without needing a smartphone or literacy.

Community Infrastructure

Serves as a voice layer for community services — health information, civic communication, agricultural guidance — bridging the gap between institutions and the people they serve.

Low-Connectivity Ready

Designed for real-world infrastructure constraints in West Africa — lightweight, efficient, and built to function in environments where data and connectivity are limited resources.

Culturally Grounded

The griot is West Africa's original keeper of knowledge and storyteller. Kahn carries that spirit — an AI that doesn't just speak the language, but understands the culture it exists within.
