Building AI for the
Arab World
Atlas Labs is a Moroccan AI research company. We build AI products that understand Arabic — not just translate it. Kalam is live today. Kounnach, our voice-first ledger for Moroccan shopkeepers, is next.

What we build
Our Projects
We build AI products designed from the ground up for Arabic speakers and the Arab world.

Arabic-first AI assistant. Kalam understands Modern Standard Arabic, dialects from across the region, and the cultural nuance behind every word. Available in Arabic, French, and English.

Kounnach
كناش Buildingkounnach.com
The paper credit notebook, digitized by voice. Morocco’s corner-shop owners track customer credit by sending a WhatsApp voice note in Darija — no app to install, no typing, no literacy assumed.

Who we are
Built in Morocco.
Built for the Arab World.
Atlas Labs is founded by Moroccan software engineers who studied in Montréal, Canada, and built their careers working with some of Québec's largest organizations — Bombardier, Hydro-Québec, and Québec's Ministère de l'Éducation, among others. Over 10 years of hands-on experience building mission-critical systems for institutions that demand rigor, reliability, and scale.
We brought that expertise home to Morocco. Our mission is simple: build world-class AI products that serve the Arab world — not as a translation of what exists elsewhere, but as something designed from the ground up for 400 million Arabic speakers.

Our principles
How we build
Arabic-first
We design for Arabic from day one — not as an afterthought. Native support for MSA, dialects, and cultural context.
Privacy by design
Your data is yours. We never train on user conversations. Our infrastructure is designed to align with SOC 2 and ISO 27001 practices.
Research-driven
We fine-tune and build models specifically for Arabic NLP tasks — not just wrap existing English-first APIs.
Open to everyone
AI should be accessible. Every product we ship has a free tier — because capability should not be gated by income.
