Our aim is to give people the ability to use their mother tongue in everyday, electronic communication in a digital world, no matter where they are and whatever language they speak.

Poio

The main project of the CIDLeS Media Lab is Poio, a free and open source predictive text and transliteration system for under-resourced languages. We support text input for languages like Bavarian, Chechen and Sorbian on mobile phones and desktop computers.

Poio also contains a collection of software tools and libraries for researchers working on language documentation, descriptive linguistics and language typology. It allows linguists to manage and analyze their data.
