Tether launches offline AI translation for African languages

Tether is expanding beyond stablecoins with new open-source AI translation models built to run fully offline on smartphones and laptops. The models support 19 African languages, and Tether is positioning the technology for use in education, healthcare and other sectors where connectivity is limited.

The launch marks a step in Tether's broader push into AI infrastructure alongside its stablecoin and data businesses, targeting regions with restricted internet access.
