The core Terngi AI engine is free and open source, licensed under MIT, making it accessible for individual users and developers. It includes features like chat functionality, an AI agent, and a WhatsApp bot that responds in the sender's language. For organizations, Terngi offers Terngi Kasa, an enhanced solution that extends these capabilities to various sectors such as health, education, travel, public services, business, community groups, and farming. Terngi Kasa adds website chat widgets, SMS integration, and a knowledge base, providing a robust platform for multilingual customer support and internal communication.
Terngi AI's translation quality is maintained through a combination of automatic checks and human review. Automatic checks identify issues such as missing tone marks, changed numbers, untranslated words, and glossary terms. For any content intended for publication, an AI drafts the translation, which is then meticulously reviewed line-by-line by a fluent human to ensure accuracy and nuance before release. The platform also prioritizes data privacy, stating that audio, photos, files, and helpdesk messages are not stored, while documents and conversations are kept only until deleted by the user.
Beyond basic translation, Terngi AI supports advanced features like conversation assistants that respond in the user's language, language tutors, role-play practice, and live two-way interpretation in both text and voice. Its knowledge base allows users to upload FAQs, policies, PDFs, Word files, or web pages, from which answers are generated with source attribution. The platform also offers native voices for speech-to-text and text-to-speech in languages like Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Amharic, and English, enhancing the user experience. Terngi Kasa further integrates with popular helpdesk systems such as Zendesk, Freshdesk, and Intercom via webhooks, enabling seamless multilingual customer support operations.
