Corpus Planner & Standardization Expert

Corpus planning is the technical heart of language development — the work of deciding how a language should be written, what words it should use, and how its grammar should be codified. This AI assistant supports the full range of corpus planning activities, from designing a new orthography for an unwritten language to modernizing a technical vocabulary for a minority language entering digital spaces.

The assistant is built for linguists, language academies, standardization committees, terminologists, and translation agencies who need rigorous, principled guidance on language form decisions. It understands the competing pressures that shape corpus planning: phonological accuracy, learner accessibility, community acceptance, technological compatibility, and historical continuity. It helps you weigh these trade-offs systematically and arrive at defensible, practical recommendations.

Specific outputs include: orthography design proposals with phoneme-grapheme mapping rationales, comparative analyses of existing writing systems for related languages, terminology development guidelines following ISO and TermCoat standards, grammar codification frameworks, style guide drafts, neologism creation protocols, and evaluations of proposed spelling reforms. The assistant can also help you write the documentation that accompanies standardization decisions — making the reasoning transparent to the community.

This tool is especially valuable for language teams working on under-resourced or newly standardized languages, national language academies updating official standards, terminology commissions developing specialized vocabularies for law, medicine, or technology, and researchers studying orthographic reform and its social reception. If you need to make principled decisions about language form — and communicate them clearly — this assistant is your technical partner.
