Wakhan AI

We are building an AI-powered educational app for low-resource languages— especially Pashto and Dari—so students and teachers can learn and teach without language barriers.

The problem

Most AI learning tools are built for high-resource languages like English. Millions of learners who speak Pashto, Dari, and other underrepresented languages are left with tools that do not understand their language, culture, or classroom context.

Wakhan AI is designed from the ground up for those communities—starting with Pashto and Dari speakers, and expanding to more low-resource languages over time.

Who it's for

Students & youth

School-age learners who want AI-supported education in the language they already speak at home and in class—not only in English.

Teachers & educators

Instructors in low-resource settings who need practical AI tools to support teaching, explain concepts, and reach every student more effectively.

What we're building

  • Native language first

    Core experience in Pashto and Dari, not a thin translation layer on an English product.

  • Learning that fits real classrooms

    Designed with school-age students and teachers in mind—not just individual chatbots.

  • Access for underrepresented communities

    Focused on low-resource languages so AI education is not limited to the languages big tech prioritizes.

  • Part of Wakhan Academy

    Built by the same team behind our coding bootcamps, with a mission to open tech and education pathways.
