Our Story

Breaking Down Language Barriers in Education

Founded in Lagos, Nigeria, Gossiper was born from a simple belief: every student deserves equal access to education, regardless of their hearing ability or native language.

Our Mission

To make education universally accessible by providing real-time AI-powered captions and translations that break down language and hearing barriers in classrooms worldwide.

Why We Started

Our founder, Agbaje Omobobola Melody, witnessed firsthand how language barriers and hearing difficulties prevented brilliant students from reaching their full potential. Traditional solutions were expensive, slow, and often unavailable in developing regions.

Global Impact

Today, we serve students across Africa, Asia, and beyond, with special focus on indigenous languages like Yoruba, Hausa, and Swahili that are often overlooked by mainstream technology platforms.
