Murya

Sovereign Hausa AI

“Murya” — “voice,” in Hausa

Built by Hausa,
for Hausa.

The first open, multi-speaker Hausa text-to-speech — trained on native recordings, judged by a native ear, owned by the community it serves.

“Barka da zuwa cibiyar Muryar Hausa”

Muryoyi · The Voices

Eight native speakers

One model, eight distinct Hausa voices — men and women — articulating the full sound system of the language, hooked consonants and all.

Mace · Female “Gaskiya ta fi ƙarfin takobi, in ji magabata.”
Namiji · Male “Sannu da zuwa, ina fatan kana lafiya.”

Fasaha · Beyond the voice

A full assistant, not a demo

The voice is where Murya started. What runs behind it today is a complete Hausa-first assistant — live spoken conversation, text chat, document translation, and a growing dictionary — continuously refined by the native speakers who use it.

Live conversation

Tattaunawa kai-tsaye

Speak naturally and hear a real spoken reply back — a live turn-taking call, not a transcript window.

Text chat

Hira ta rubutu

A grounded, Hausa-first assistant for everyday questions — from proverbs to prayer times to plain conversation.

Document translation

Fassara takardu

Paste a passage and get a faithful Hausa ⇄ English translation or summary, orthography intact.

Dictionary

Ƙamus

Tens of thousands of Hausa–English entries, drawn from historic and community lexicons alike.

Me ya sa · Why it matters

The sounds that make Hausa, Hausa

Hausa's hooked consonants — ɓ, ɗ, ƙ, ƴ — are not decoration; they change meaning. ɗa (son) is not da (with). Existing systems flatten them. Murya was built to preserve them, because a voice that loses them is not, fully, a Hausa voice.

Motsi ya fi laɓewa. From consumers to producers. We stopped waiting for someone else to build a voice for our language — so we built it ourselves. — Adamu Danjuma Abubakar · Adab Tech
