The programme

The best comic you'll never read is written in a language you don't speak.

01

Translation is priced by the page.

The bill arrives before the first reader does.

02

Lettering is a second job.

English never fits the bubble you drew.

03

The algorithm reads English first.

Discovery is stacked toward one language.

The fine print, up front

We are not buying your comic.

WHO WE ARE? Why WE'RE DOING THIS?

We'd rather say the quiet part out loud.

Alko Intelligence is an AI-powered tech solutions company. Our communications arm handles translation and localization for creators, start-ups and corporations. We believe AI should be used to make opportunities accessible to a wider pool of people. We use our tech solutions to lower production costs while sustaining the quality.

We understand getting attention for early works is hard for every creator. We want to give you a free English copy of your work and hopefully a chance to have your work reach a wider audience.

The deal, plainly You get an English edition,
free, and keep everything.

Will you use my art or script to train an AI model?

No — not the art, not the script, not the translation.
