Translate + learn · Built in the UAE

Translate it today.
Speak it yourself tomorrow.

Jusr does both jobs. It translates — by voice, by camera, offline, and in real Gulf dialect rather than textbook Arabic. It teaches, with a guided path from your first letter to your first sentence. And it remembers you, so nothing you tell it has to be said twice.

Free to start, no account needed. Not out yet — we'll email you the day it lands.

About Jusr

A phrasebook knows the words.
Jusr knows the street.

Ask a normal translator for “how much is this?” in Arabic and you get كم سعره؟ — grammatically perfect, and something no one in a Dubai souq has ever said out loud.

Jusr was built the other way round: from a hand-checked Emirati dataset of sound shifts, pronouns, verb forms and everyday vocabulary. Common phrases resolve instantly from a bundled lexicon — no network, no model, no drift. Everything else is grounded in that same dataset before it ever reaches a language model. And when a phrase genuinely is the same in both, Jusr tells you that too, instead of letting you guess.

  • Dialect-first, not dialect-as-an-afterthought
  • Romanization that reads gahwa, never qahwa
  • Honest labels when a result falls back to standard Arabic

Features

Everything in one app

Five ways to be understood right now, and one to stop needing them. Every mode shares the same engine, the same dialect data and the same offline packs.

Voice translation

Speak naturally. Jusr stops listening on its own when you pause, then reads the answer back in a real, human-sounding voice.

Auto-stop dictation

Two-way conversation

One phone, two people, a microphone each side. Turns stack up as a real chat so nobody loses the thread mid-sentence.

Live back-and-forth

Live interpreter

Plug in headphones and go hands-free. Jusr listens continuously and whispers the translation while the other person keeps talking.

Hands-free mode

Camera translate

Point at a menu, a road sign, a tenancy contract or a clinic form. Text is detected on the spot and translated where you're looking at it.

How it works

Four taps to fluent

No account required to start. Pick a pair, say the thing, get an answer you can actually use.

  1. 01

    Pick your pair

    Choose what you speak and who you're speaking to — from 133 languages, with Emirati Arabic sitting alongside Gulf and standard Arabic as its own choice.

  2. 02

    Speak, snap or type

    Just talk — Jusr hears when you start and when you stop. Or point the camera at the text in front of you, or type it out. Arabizi works too — write “shu al7een?” and Jusr reads it as Arabic.

  3. 03

    Get a real answer

    Dialect-accurate script, romanization tuned to how Gulf speakers pronounce it, and a tap-to-play voice — plus an honest label when a phrase falls back to standard Arabic.

  4. 04

    Keep it, learn it

    Star it into favourites, find it again in history, or let it turn into tomorrow's daily phrase. Download the pack once and every one of those still works in airplane mode.

Jusr AI

A companion that remembers you

Not a chatbot with a form to fill in. Tell Jusr once that you're in Dubai and use Arabic at work, and every answer after that is for you — today, tomorrow, and the next time you open the app.

It picks up where you left off

Your goals, your level, what you keep looking up, the phrase you got wrong last week. Ask “what should I learn next?” and it already knows the language, and why.

Memory you can see and clear

It talks like a person

Warm, short, and to the point. It asks a real follow-up when one helps, corrects you the way a friend would, and never opens with “Certainly!”.

Text or live voice

Just talk over it

No button to hold. It listens, answers out loud, and stops the moment you interrupt — then listens again, still on the same conversation.

Hands-free · interrupt any time

How do I say “how are you?” to my manager?

شخبارك؟

Shakhbaarak?

That’s the everyday Emirati one — fine with your manager too, it’s friendly rather than casual. If he’s much older, kaif il-haal? is the safer step up. The usual reply is bkhair, il-hamdulillah.

What should I learn next?

You’ve got greetings and the office basics down. Since it’s work Arabic you’re after, next is asking for things politely — mumkin…? — and I’ll keep it Emirati, not textbook. Want to start with three?

Learn

Not just translated.
Actually learned.

Jusr is a teacher as much as a translator. There is an ordered path from your first letter to your first written sentence, a coach that listens to you say it, and an exam that will not let you move on until you have actually earned it.

  1. Step 1

    The alphabet

    Every letter and the sound it makes.

  2. Step 2

    Numbers

    Count from zero to ten, and read the numerals.

  3. Step 3

    Basic words

    Hello, thank you, water, food, friend, sorry.

  4. Step 4

    Handwriting

    Trace each letter with your finger until it sticks.

  5. Step 5

    Writing practice

    Write the whole sentence yourself, unaided.

A coach that hears you

Reading a phrase is not the same as being understood saying it. Tap the mic, say it aloud, and Jusr transcribes what actually came out of your mouth — then tells you whether you nailed it or shows you what it heard instead.

Nice to meet you

A new phrase each morning, and a streak that survives until midnight. Miss a few and they queue up as catch-up rather than quietly disappearing.

Why Jusr

Built for here, not ported to here

The UAE runs on a dozen languages at once. Jusr is designed for that reality — the dialect people actually use, the errands they actually run, the moments the signal drops.

Real dialect, not textbook Arabic

A curated Emirati dataset — sound shifts, pronouns, verb conjugations, aspect and negation markers, plus vocabulary mapped to the standard word it replaces — sits underneath every answer. Common phrases come straight from a bundled lexicon, so they're exact every time rather than whatever a model felt like that call.

وينwainwhere أبيabiI want شخباركshakhbaarakhow are you شوshuwhat

Works with no signal

Download a pack once and translation, phrasebook and lessons keep running underground, mid-desert or in airplane mode.

Paperwork, handled

Ready phrase flows for Tasheel, Amer, MOHRE, RTA, DHA and Ejari — the sentences you actually need at the counter.

133 languages, one app

Malayalam, Hindi, Urdu, Tagalog, Tamil, Bengali and beyond — with dedicated packs for the region's largest communities.

Ready when it matters

SOS phrases, embassy and helpline numbers saved offline, and a one-tap emergency screen that doesn't need a search box.

Honest about its limits

When an answer falls back to standard Arabic, Jusr says so on screen. You always know whether you're speaking dialect or fus-ha.

The app

Black canvas. Gold signal.

One dark, quiet interface where the only bright thing on screen is the thing you need next.
