What Semijo Delivers

From raw evidence
to published story

Every story generated by Semijo traces back to sources you provided. The result: faster journalism, fewer errors, and a complete evidence record.

Transcription in Seconds

Audio becomes a searchable, timestamped transcript in under a minute. Record live, or upload from any device. Supports 90+ languages including Amharic, Swahili, and Hausa.

🗄️
Searchable Source Vault

Every transcript and document lives in one searchable vault. Journalists build their evidence base over time — transcripts, documents, press releases — all ready to ground a story.

✍️
Evidence-Grounded Story Drafts

AI generates story drafts using only the sources you select. Every factual claim is tagged. Anything unverifiable is flagged for editorial review before a word reaches your audience.

🚀
One-Click Publish

Approved stories go straight to WordPress, or export as clean .docx. Editorial review tags are stripped automatically. Nothing publishes without your sign-off.
