Language Intelligence Infrastructure

LugemiBuilders

The go-to voice layer for people launching agents, video products, and apps that must sound human — in native languages, Africa-first.

Builders are shipping AI agents, video pipelines, and creator tools that need speech that carries real accents, dialects, and cultural density — not a thin TTS gadget. Lugemi is Language Intelligence infrastructure: first-party own:* voices, speech synthesize, translate, speaking agents, connectors, MCP/CLI, and metered /v1 APIs under one workspace. Pick a native voice, wire keys, and launch products that sound like people.

Native voices builders ship with

Agent transcript · builder product desk
Can my agent greet customers in Twi and Kiswahili?
Aane — and karibu. Lugemi own:* voices carry both languages with local accent and cultural context.

Play each turn, or play the full agent conversation.

Translate & play

Realtime demo

Translate, then play source and target — or play turns in the chat.

Use cases, demos & developer kit

How teams ship with Builders: interactive demos above, step guides below, and the same /v1 surface for APIs and SDKs.

Use case guide

API · SDK · MCP kit

Same contracts agents and video share.

  1. Text to Speech in Studio or the SDK with own:* or clone:{id}.
  2. Agent simulate for speaking-agent turns.
  3. Translate for scripts and dubbing lines.
  4. MCP/CLI: lugemi speech · lugemi video-voice · lugemi voices.

Voice agents that sound local

Ship STT → reason → TTS agents with NativeAccentVoicePicker controls: gender, tone/emotion, language, and country/region accent from the Africa-first own:* registry. Cultural metadata stays on every pick.

Video & dubbing voice

Narration and dubbed takes for product videos, training films, and creator pipelines — synthesize with speech, localize with Translate, route through Connectors or MCP/CLI without stacking noisy vendor audio.

Human-sounding native catalog

own:* voices across Kiswahili, Yorùbá, Amharic, isiZulu, Twi, Hausa, Arabic, French, and more — with region and ethnic context, not generic accent placeholders.

Infrastructure, not a toy

API keys, Playground, Docs, OpenAPI, @lugemi/sdk, CLI, MCP, Connectors, and Chat Studio share one surface. Soft lg_test_ keys for pilots; lg_live_ for production. Coverage stays honest per language × task.
