Model Evaluation
Evaluate AI models where it matters: in real African-language use.
Evaluate your modelAI models can perform well in general benchmarks while still struggling with African languages, cultural context, and linguistic variation. Linguistics Island evaluates models where it matters: in real African-language use.
We design and run evaluation tasks that measure how AI systems understand, generate, translate, and reason in African languages. Our evaluations can be tailored to specific languages, domains, and model capabilities.
What We Evaluate
Text Generation
Fluency, accuracy, relevance, and linguistic quality.
Machine Translation
Meaning preservation and naturalness.
Reasoning
Common-sense reasoning, inference, and question answering.
Speech & Language
Transcription, pronunciation, and speech recognition.
Linguistic Accuracy
Morphology, syntax, phonology, tone, and other language-specific features.
We combine linguistic expertise, native-speaker evaluation, structured benchmarks, and human assessment to identify where models succeed, where they fail, and what needs improvement.
Evaluate Your Model
Whether you are developing an LLM, language application, translation system, or speech technology, we can design an evaluation framework around your specific requirements.
Put your model to the test. Let's see how well it performs across African languages and where it can improve.
