The Founding Partnership

License the whole living program.

Not a dataset — a subscription to a platform that keeps growing. A Founding Partnership licenses the entire BantuNomics substrate: every domain and every language, the full consented audio corpus, all exports and APIs — and everything curated while you're subscribed.

What it is
The program, not a file

Frontier labs otherwise buy Bantu data piecemeal, from many vendors, as static files that drift and go stale. BantuNomics is infrastructure that keeps being curated — built foundation‑first (the syllable/operating‑alphabet layer) and continuously extended upward and outward across the Bantu family. A Founding Partnership subscribes you to that living body of work: you get what's here today and everything that deepens and widens during your term.

What it grants
The whole substrate, one credential
Every product and domain — syllables/FSIs, verbs, tone, health, numbers, standards, equations, concord, and each layer added next.
Every language, as coverage grows — not an agreed subset.
The full consented audio corpus — the scarce, aligned Bantu→English code‑switch recordings, uncapped.
All exports and APIs — bulk HuggingFace / Parquet, the machine surface, and MCP at partner rate.
A private engagement data room — your deliverables, refreshed as the platform grows.
The roadmap — where it's going next; your partnership shapes the sequencing.
The economics
Every recording is six datasets

One consented, time‑segmented Bantu→English take is the ground truth for six things labs otherwise buy from six vendors — code‑switch ASR, Bantu‑accented English, syllable/FSI alignment, pronunciation & TTS, a self‑grading benchmark, and domain/homograph truth. You license the program that produces them, not the files.

Why it's a subscription

The corpus, the languages, and the engines compound continuously. A one‑time file is stale the day it ships; a partnership stays current because the platform keeps curating.

Why the founding rate

The $1.75M/yr is the founding price, locked for your first two years — it rises afterward. Founding partners get in early, at the platform's earliest and lowest terms.

Become a Founding Partner.

Enterprise, contract‑provisioned — one credential resolves across every subdomain. Start with an evaluation to verify the substrate on your own stack, then license the whole program.
