Ko wai mātou · Our kaupapa

Guardians of the great river.

We listen to our tūpuna, guide our tamariki, and remember our reo. That is why Whakamāori is free for individuals and begins again every day.

This is a practical starting place—not a replacement for the knowledge held by fluent speakers, whānau, hapū, and iwi. For whakapapa, legal, health, ceremonial, or tikanga-sensitive kōrero, take the translation to a trusted person who understands its context.

We preserve macrons, keep the translation boundary narrow, and store only the minimum usage information needed to keep the service fair.

Less data, clearer purpose.

What we keep

A private identifier, daily usage count, basic service health metadata, and feedback you deliberately send.

What we do not keep

The text you ask us to translate or the translated result. We do not use either to train models.

Why sign in?

It lets the service raise your daily allowance from 10 to 50 without opening the door to automated bulk use.
