“Murya” — “voice,” in Hausa
Built by Hausa,
for Hausa.
A native-speaker-built Hausa text-to-speech — trained on native recordings, judged by a native ear, owned by the community it serves.

Muryoyi · The Voices
Malama Asabe and Malam Garba
Hear two named voices here — Malama Asabe (Mace) and Malam Garba (Namiji). More voices are coming with sign-in. The model underneath is still trained on eight native Hausa speakers, articulating the full sound system of the language, hooked consonants and all.
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.

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
