Flagship

Flagship is a Moroccan-registered company, founded in 2022. We have served as a research partner across a range of projects, and since 2024 we publish open datasets and models and produce scholarship on AI risks and alignment.

Our work centers on three threads:

• Open data & models — building and releasing datasets and models for underserved languages and domains, so the public-good layer of AI stays open and reusable.
• AI safety & alignment — research and writing on emerging risks, the safe and accountable deployment of AI systems, and alignment.
• Applied language technology — turning open research into tools real communities can use.

🌍 Lingo / NativeAI — preserving Cameroon's oral-first languages

Our flagship applied project preserves and revitalizes Cameroon's largely oral, low-resource languages through open voice and text data and French-pivot machine translation. Live at lingo.cm.

Open models

• French-pivot MarianMT covering 59 Cameroonian languages (119 translation directions), served as compressed int8 — see cameroon-int8 plus the original fp32 releases.

Open datasets

• cameroon_bibles — verse-aligned scripture text across 59 Cameroonian languages.
• ghomala-spoken-bible — ~20 hours of aligned spoken Ghomálá' (audio + trilingual text).

All released under CC-BY-4.0. Read the research log at lingo.cm/blog.
