From personal struggle to global impact in speech therapy
Hi everyone! I'm Hamza Abualkhair from Egypt, founder & CEO of Lothgha App the first Arabic-language AI-powered speech therapy platform helping people overcome articulation and fluency disorders.
I started Lothgha out of personal experience and a passion for making speech therapy more accessible, especially for adults in underserved regions. Our app now supports over 74,000 users across 84 countries, and we ve proudly won 7+ social impact awards, including from Huawei, the Anzisha Prize, and the Islamic Development Bank. We were also selected as one of the top 6 global finalists at the Hult Prize Global Accelerator in London 2024.
Our biggest innovation? We re the first app globally offering full articulation therapy plans without needing a speech therapist, thanks to our specialized AI model. We re now expanding to support other disorders like stuttering and aphasia and building toward a SaaS solution for clinics and providers.
Excited to connect, learn, and collaborate with you all!
