This is the Nzinga Network pilot: an invite-only phone app where members record voice notes in their own languages.

The idea

Members record voice notes in their own languages and choose, for every recording, who can use it: “Only me”, “Nzinga's models”, “Nzinga and approved partners” or “Everyone”. They are paid per accepted minute of their own voice, at a rate set at launch.

“Recordings you share help train speech and language models for your language.”

Who can use each recording

  • Four choices, set on every recording
  • Each speaker chooses for their voice
  • Withdraw any time, two taps away

What is built today

Consent records are append-only: a change or withdrawal adds a new record, so the history is kept. The API covers sign-in, invites, recordings, consent and earnings. Audio upload, calling and payouts are not built yet.
