Company Profile
Basic Company Overview
YarnGPT is a Nigerian artificial intelligence company specialising in voice AI and text-to-speech technology designed for African users. The company developed a speech synthesis platform capable of converting text into natural-sounding audio in Nigerian-accented English and several indigenous Nigerian languages, including Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa.
Founded in 2025, YarnGPT was created to address the limitations of global voice AI systems that often struggle with African accents and local languages. Its technology supports content creators, educators, businesses, and developers seeking culturally relevant voice solutions for African audiences.
In June 2026, the company was acquired by Bluechip Technologies as part of its strategy to expand its AI product ecosystem and strengthen its portfolio of locally developed AI solutions.
