Our Goal: Scale Deaf Accessibility
Our Goal: Scale Deaf Accessibility
70 million Deaf people
Face systemic communication barriers, every day
80% face reading challenges
Because written language isn’t their first language.
Millions are still excluded
From school, work, public life due to lack of real accessibility.
We’re not just building a tool, we’re laying the foundation of a new era. At spokhand, we believe sign language should be as visible and respected as any spoken language. We’re creating the first global sign language infrastructure: native, data-driven, and led by the Deaf.
But we can’t do it alone. We need Founding Donors like you to lead this movement.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is spokhand?
spokhand is the fusion of “spoke” and “hand”, a name that reflects the meeting point between spoken language and sign language. We’re not here to adapt existing tools. We’re building what doesn’t exist yet. spokhand is pioneering the creation of the first global sign language database. That’s the core. A living and structured archive of sign language content that can serve as a base for multiple technologies. This database will make possible new tools in translation, learning, communication, and interactive experiences. But above all, it’s a way to preserve the value of sign language and its unique visual structure. We believe sign language should be documented, shared, and represented like any other language. That’s why we focus first on the data, because nothing can be built without it. spokhand exists so that sign language can be seen, used, and recognized everywhere
