As I started the project my goal was to launch in the new year of 2021 but as I was working after work and the awesome friends who helped me with translating the UI to Balochi were also busy with their job and studies respectively.

We could finally launch the project one day before the International Mother language day. What could be a better date to launch a language-related project!

After discussing the idea with a few of my friends who happen to be writers or have writer friends, I got validation that there is a need for such a platform and the writers would definitely use it and it will help their followers to easily could read their favorite writers.

Thus I started working on the project.

There were no dedicated platforms for Balochi-speaking writers to publish their work.

The other gap was that there is so little Balochi content on the internet that machines do not recognize the Balochi language and that made me sick and feel frustrated.

Another major issue was that there is, to date no content (wordlists, corpus) using which a researcher could perform NLP, semantic analysis, or any other academic research.
