Our Approach

Phase I: Focusing on Black Culture

We’re starting our journey by focusing on the experiences of Black culture—a community that faces some of the most severe gaps in AI recognition and representation.
Through extensive research, community partnerships, and proprietary datasets, we’re building systems that understand the linguistic patterns, cultural references, and lived experiences that shape Black culture.
Our phased approach ensures that we can deeply understand specific community needs before expanding to serve additional marginalized groups in Phase II.
