## 🎯 Mission / ተልዕኮ
**ድምፄ (Demtse — "my voice")** builds free, open-source speech AI so 120M+ Ethiopians can access technology in their mother tongue.
Ethiopia has 80+ living languages. Big Tech supports almost none of them. We're changing that — one language at a time, starting with the highest-quality open Amharic TTS ever built.
