EZN — Ethiopian Sign Language platform

Why EZN exists

From communication gaps to instant EthSL access.

The barrier is real—and so is the fix. One platform turns signs into text and speech so hospitals, schools, and teams don't wait on scarce interpreters.

The problem

Communication still breaks when EthSL isn't understood.

Interpreters are scarce, appointments slip, and classrooms leave Deaf students behind. Ethiopia needs technology built for EthSL—not a one-size-fits-all import.

  • 1M+ Deaf and hard-of-hearing people navigating services without reliable interpretation
  • Scarce Certified EthSL interpreters can't cover hospitals, banks, and schools at scale
  • Delayed People need answers now—not after booking help days later
The solution

EZN makes EthSL understandable—instantly.

Vision models read signs, translation speaks clearly, and meetings include everyone— with captions and Telebirr-ready credits built for Ethiopian networks.

  • See Pose + hand landmarks classified into EthSL labels in real time
  • Hear Stable text overlays and speech so hearing colleagues stay in the loop
  • Meet WebRTC calls with one-side sign translation and live captions

  • Synchronized subtitles for clarity
  • Roadmap-ready for full speech->sign delivery

About

What is EZN?

EZN means "ear" in Ge'ez—a promise that every signed message can be heard. We build AI that respects EthSL grammar, Ethiopian connectivity realities, and the dignity of people who have waited too long for equal access.

Our vision is simple: banks, hospitals, schools, and government offices where communication never depends on whether an interpreter happens to be free. AI closes that gap—with humans still in control.

Mission

Make EthSL communication instant, affordable, and dignified.

Vision

Two-way accessibility as default infrastructure across Ethiopia.

Impact

Fewer missed appointments. Stronger classrooms. Inclusive workplaces.

Business model

B2C for people. B2B for institutions. API keys for builders.

Simple plans for individuals, enterprise seats for organizations, and developer API keys so other apps can call EZN's EthSL model the same way you'd use Gemini or other AI models.
