Arabic AI & Data

Arabic AI needs Yemen's voices.

Yemeni Arabic is one of the least-resourced dialects in public datasets — a few hours of speech, and text corpora that have not been refreshed in years. 5 Lines supplies the people, the consent and the quality control that close that gap, for model builders in the Gulf and worldwide.

Native
Annotators, transcribers and evaluators who grew up speaking the dialects we collect.
Managed
We recruit, vet, train and QA the team. You receive clean data and a quality report.
Consented
Informed consent, PII handling and secure delivery documented on every dataset.

Offers

What we deliver for AI and language-technology teams.

Data

Yemeni Dialect Data Studio

Speech and text collection in Taizi, Sanaani, Adeni, Hadrami and Tihami Arabic, with speaker metadata, transcription and dialect tags. Delivered under consent and licensing terms you can audit.

Teams

Annotation & Verification Teams

Managed Arabic-native annotators for text, speech and map data: labelling, points-of-interest verification, web research, reviewer and QA roles. Hourly or per-unit pricing with a pilot phase first.

Evaluation

Arabic LLM Evaluation Panel

A vetted roster for preference rating, cultural-relevance review, dialect accuracy checks and red-teaming, so models meant for Arab users are tested by Arab users.

Applied AI

AI for M&E and Knowledge

AI-assisted transcript coding, indicator QA and report drafting for NGOs, and Arabic-first retrieval assistants over your own documents — always with a human sign-off.

How a data engagement runs

Pilot first, then scale.

Week 1–2

Scope, guidelines and a sample batch. We agree quality thresholds and the rate card.

Week 3–4

Pilot with a small team; inter-annotator agreement and throughput measured and reported.

Scale

Team grows to the agreed size with reviewer and QA layers; weekly quality reports.

Handover

Clean datasets, metadata, consent records and a final quality summary.

Where we sit on priceMiddle-East-native quality at rates well below Gulf labour costs — because our teams live in Yemen, and because we manage them so you don't have to.
