mazdek AI, Explained: Every Feature of the Kurdish Language Platform (2026 Guide)

Most language tools treat Kurdish as an afterthought — one dialect if you are lucky, a robotic voice, no understanding of Kurdish names or history. mazdek AI was built the other way round: Kurdish first, in all three major dialects, with the rest of the world's languages around it.

This guide walks through every part of the platform — what each tool does, who it is for, and what you get on the free and paid plans. Each section has a short clip of the real product in your language.

One account, seven tools

Everything shares one login, one set of allowances and one history: a document you scan in Belge can be translated in Werger, read aloud by Deng and discussed with the assistant without leaving the app.

The AI assistant: a Kurdish-speaking mazdek AI

The assistant is the heart of the platform. Ask it anything, in any of the three dialects or in 13 other interface languages, and it answers in the language you used — with correct Kurdish grammar, not a machine-translated approximation.

What sets it apart:

• A Kurdish knowledge base. Questions about Kurdish history, culture, places and current events are answered from a library of Kurdish news and books, with the source shown, instead of from guesswork.
• Files and photos. Drop in a PDF, a photo of a page or an audio file and ask questions about it; scanned Kurdish documents are read automatically.
• Projects. Group chats and files by topic — a thesis, a court case, a family archive — so the assistant only looks at what belongs together.
• Memory. It remembers the facts you choose to keep (your dialect, your job, your project) across conversations; you can see and delete every one of them.
• Voice mode. Talk instead of typing and hear the answer read back in a Kurdish voice.
• Read aloud, export, share. Any answer can be spoken, exported as a document or shared with a link.

Who it is for: students and teachers, journalists, anyone writing in Kurdish, and diaspora families who want to ask about home in their own language.

Werger: translation across 255 languages

Werger is a translator built around Kurdish rather than bolted onto it. Kurdish pairs are handled by the strongest model we run, because Kurdish grammar — the izafe, the copula, the two scripts — is exactly where general translators fall apart.

• 255 languages, including every language the Kurdish diaspora lives in.
• Speak and listen. Dictate the source, hear the translation in a natural voice.
• Summarise. Long text can be condensed before or after translation.
• Soranî in Latin letters. Read Soranî output transliterated into the Latin alphabet if you cannot read the Arabic script.

Who it is for: anyone moving between Kurdish and Turkish, Arabic, Persian, German, English, Swedish — at work, at school or at home.

Belge: scanned documents, photos and PDFs

Kurdish has a century of printed material and very little of it is searchable. Belge reads it:

• Photos and scans of books, letters, forms and street signs; PDFs that are only images.
• Six document languages: Kurmancî and Kirmanckî (Latin script), Soranî, Arabic, Farsi, Turkish and English — you choose the document's language, not the app's.
• Then do something with it: translate, summarise, read aloud, or hand it to the assistant to ask questions.
• Multi-page documents are processed in the background; you can keep working.

Who it is for: students with old textbooks, families with letters and certificates, archives, lawyers and translators.

Deng: natural Kurdish voices

Deng turns text into speech that sounds like a person, not a robot — and, unusually, does it for all three dialects.

• Own models for Kurmancî/Kirmanckî and for Soranî, trained on studio recordings; 1,200+ voice identities to choose from.
• 80+ other languages through a multilingual engine, metered separately.
• Download the audio (MP3/WAV), keep a library, share a listening link.
• Voice cloning from a short recording, so a text can be read in a familiar voice.
• Everywhere in the app: read a chat answer, a translation or a scanned page aloud with one tap.

The full guide to Kurdish text-to-speech explains how the voices are built and how much audio each plan gives you.

Who it is for: teachers, content creators, accessibility users, and anyone learning to read Kurdish.

Studio: audio and video to text

Studio is speech-to-text for Kurdish that copes with real recordings — a phone on a kitchen table, an old TV tape, a crowded interview.

• Kurmancî, Soranî, Kirmanckî with dedicated models; about 90 other languages.
• Clean-up before transcription: music and background voices are separated out, noise is reduced, long files are cut at natural pauses.
• A grammar pass for Kurdish text afterwards, so names and sentences come out right.
• Correct inline, translate, export as TXT, DOCX, SRT, VTT or JSON, or share a read-only link.
• Files up to 500 MB, video included; record directly in the app; paste a public video link.

The step-by-step transcription guide covers plans, subtitles and tips for noisy audio.

Who it is for: journalists, researchers, students, media archives, families with voice messages.

Live interpreter: two people, two languages, one conversation

The live interpreter is for the moments where a written translation is too slow: a doctor's appointment, a municipal office, a school meeting, a phone call between a grandmother in Amed and a grandchild in Stockholm.

• Two-way speech: speak in Kurdish, the other person hears their language, and back.
• Face-to-face mode on one phone, with the screen split so each side reads their own language.
• Invite by QR code or link so the other person joins from their own device — no account needed for the guest.
• Spoken output in a natural voice, plus the written transcript of the whole conversation.
• Available on Max and Enterprise plans; a free demo shows how a session runs.

Who it is for: clinics, social services, schools, businesses with Kurdish-speaking customers, and families.

Rojev: a Kurdish news brief every morning

Rojev is a daily spoken bulletin produced with the same voices — a few minutes of the day's Kurdish news, written and read in 15 languages, published every morning on the web, in the apps and as a podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Every episode has a transcript, chapter markers and a shareable page, so you can listen on the way to work or read it in the interface language you prefer.

The apps: web, iPhone, Android — one account

Everything above runs on the web at mazdek.ai and in the native iOS and Android apps, on one account. The interface is available in 16 languages — Kurmancî, Soranî, Kirmanckî, Turkish, Arabic, Persian, English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Dutch, Swedish, Russian, Armenian and Syriac — and mirrors correctly for right-to-left scripts. On a phone you can share an audio file, a photo or a link from any app straight into mazdek AI.

The web app (PWA) is worth knowing about: no download from a store, the same account and features, and it runs on Windows, macOS, Linux and Chromebooks as well as phones — useful for classrooms, offices and older devices.

Enterprise adds volume, an API, a data-processing agreement and onboarding — talk to us. Prices on the App Store and Google Play differ slightly from the web.
