Twi AI training data, collected to your brief
Twi data from IndecalAI is collected or reviewed by a native Twi speaker, not pulled from an existing archive. We work with speakers across Africa, frequently alongside French, English or Arabic in the same conversation, matched to your brief and checked before delivery.
What Twi data can we produce?
Twi data from IndecalAI is speech, text, conversational and translation data collected or reviewed by a Twi speaker for your brief, not pulled from an existing archive.
Speakers here often move between this language and French, English or Arabic within the same conversation, so a brief should say whether to keep that mixing or avoid it.
This sits across several of our services depending on what you need: data collection for raw speech or text, conversational AI data for dialogue, and translation and localization for converting between Twi and another language.
Translation projects often pair this language with French, English or Arabic. See translation and localization for that scope.

What to know about Twi before you brief it
Twi is a form of Akan, the most widely spoken language group in Ghana, and it has two main written standards, Asante Twi and Akuapem Twi, each tied to a region of the country.
Twi is tonal, and its writing uses two special letters for open vowel sounds that are easy to lose when text moves through tools that only expect the plain Latin set. Fante, another Akan variety, is closely related and mutually understandable to a degree, but it is usually treated separately. A brief should say which of the Twi standards applies and how English mixing should be handled.
Languages that sit close to Twi in script, family or region: Yoruba data, Igbo data, Wolof data, Hausa data, Fulani data and English data.
Deciding what to specify for any language? The guide to speech data collection covers the choices that apply across languages, and the one on transcription for AI and for people covers how speech becomes text.

Four ways to request Twi data
Each links to the service that runs it, with its full scope and process.
Twi speech data
Recorded speech in Twi: calls, prompts and voice bot utterances, mixed with French, English or Arabic if that reflects how people actually speak it.
Twi text data
Written Twi: messages, reviews, tickets or chat logs, written or labeled by people who read it natively.
Twi conversational data
Scripted or spontaneous Twi dialogue for voice bots and support agents, reflecting how speakers here actually mix languages.
Twi translation
Human-verified translation between Twi and French, English, Arabic or another language in the same project.
What to put in a Twi brief
Four things worth deciding before contributors start, so the first sample already looks right.
Region or dialect
Twi is spoken mainly in Ghana, mainly the Ashanti and Eastern regions. Worth naming in a brief: Asante Twi, Akuapem Twi, and the related Fante. Tell us the region or community you're targeting so contributors are matched to the right one.
Script or transliteration
Script for Twi: Latin letters with two extra characters, left to right. Say whether you want the native script, a transliterated version, or both, especially if your downstream system only reads one.
Data type mix
Speech, text, conversational and translation can be requested together or on their own. Tell us the mix your model needs.
Volume and timeline
A rough sense of how much data and how soon lets us staff the right number of contributors from the start.
From your brief to reviewed Twi data
One named contact owns the project from scoping to the last file.
Brief
You tell us the data type, the Twi variety or region and roughly how much you need.
NDA and scope
We sign an NDA before any data moves, then agree the scope with you.
Free sample
We produce a small sample free, so you can check it before you commit.
Production
Contributors from our network work in our own tools, to the brief you set.
Review
A review pass runs before anything is delivered.
Delivery
The data comes to you, or moves on to another service with us.
Where Twi data ends up
Common jobs for Twi data. They're examples of the work, not a client list.
Voice bots and IVR
Recorded Twi prompts and calls teach a voice bot to recognize how people actually speak, not just how a script reads.
Support chat and tickets
Everyday Twi messages, written in the domain you work in, give a chat assistant real phrasing to learn from.
Content moderation and sentiment
Labeled Twi posts, reviews and messages teach a model to read tone and intent correctly in this language.
Localizing a product
Translating prompts, UI copy and training data into Twi so a product reads like it was written for that market, not machine-translated.
Off-the-shelf Twi data, or built to your brief?
We hold around 35,000 hours of off-the-shelf speech, prompts and conversations already collected across our network. We can't promise Twi is in that pool until you ask, but it's worth checking before you commission a fresh collection. Here's how the two paths compare.
| Topic | A typical off-the-shelf dataset | Twi data with us |
|---|---|---|
| Already collected? | No way to know until you've already paid for it | We check our ~35,000-hour speech and conversation pool first and tell you honestly either way |
| Fit to your brief | Built for whoever bought it first, not your exact region, register or use case | Collected or reviewed to the region, script and format you specify |
| Who else has it | The same files can be sold to more than one buyer | Scoped to your engagement, never resold for unrelated projects |
| Checking the fit | You find out after you've already paid for it | A small free sample first, so you check it before committing to volume |
Twi data terms, in plain words
General definitions. They describe the field, not a claim about us.
Where Twi data fits
Twi is one of 100 languages on our languages directory. You can also browse every category on the datasets hub.
Do you support Twi?
Yes. Twi is one of 100 languages in this directory, part of our wider language coverage worldwide, including deep Indian language coverage. Tell us the regional variety you need.
Do you already have any Twi data collected?
Maybe. We hold around 35,000 hours of off-the-shelf speech, prompts and conversations across our network, but we can't promise Twi is in that pool until you ask. It costs nothing to check before you commission a fresh collection.
Can you mix regional varieties of Twi in one project?
Yes. Tell us the mix of regions or dialects you need and we'll match contributors from our network to that brief.
Which data types are available in Twi?
Speech, text, conversational data and translation to or from Twi. Image and video categories don't depend on language, so Twi speakers can also appear in those briefs on request.
Is a sample available before we commit?
Yes, a small free sample first.
Can this run alongside other languages in the same project?
Yes. Many engagements mix languages, domains and data types under one brief and one named contact, using our network of 30,000+ people across 150+ projects delivered so far.
What counts as a regional variety of Twi?
A version of the language tied to a place or community, which can differ in vocabulary, pronunciation, formality or script from another region's variety. Name the region in your brief if it matters for your use case.
Can you handle Twi in its native script?
Yes. Contributors work in the native script by default, with transliteration available if your project needs it instead.
Which variety of Twi should I ask for?
Ask for the one your users actually speak. Twi is spoken mainly in Ghana, mainly the Ashanti and Eastern regions, and the forms most worth naming in a brief are Asante Twi, Akuapem Twi, and the related Fante. If you are unsure, describe your users and where they live, and your named contact will help you decide before collection starts.
How is Twi written, and does it matter for the data?
Twi data uses Latin letters with two extra characters, left to right. The script and its encoding affect how a model reads the data, so say in the brief which one you need and whether a romanized or transliterated version is also required.
Request Twi data
Pick the data type, confirm Twi as the language and a rough volume, and send it. We'll produce a small sample free before you commit.
