AI chat that starts in Welsh

sgwrs.cymru is a Welsh-first AI chat platform where the interface and the replies start in Welsh, and English support is optional.

It is for people who learn, teach, work and think in Welsh. You can ask questions, get explanations and draft text without translating what you mean into English first. Pro is £15 a month, and Organisation is £20 per seat a month with a minimum of 2 seats.

For learners

Ask a question in Welsh and get the answer in Welsh. If something is hard, ask for a simpler explanation in Welsh or for some English help. You decide how much English appears.

You can practise conversation, check a sentence you have written, or ask for examples at your level.

For Welsh speakers

Chat quickly, draft confidently, and use AI without leaving the language you use every day. Welsh is the default for the interface and the replies, so there is nothing to switch on first.

For educators and people who work in Welsh

Create examples, check tone, prepare materials, and keep the work close to natural Welsh standards. This is useful for teachers and for anyone whose job involves drafting in Welsh.

AI replies are assistive. They are not professional translation, so check anything official, legal or clinical with a qualified person before you use it.

For schools and organisations

Schools, universities, public bodies, charities and businesses can use sgwrs.cymru through an organisation account. Organisation costs £20 per seat a month, with a minimum of 2 seats, and an authorised administrator buys it. Administrators manage billing, membership and usage, but they cannot read members' private chats.

sgwrs.cymru and general chatbots used in Welsh

Large general chatbots can already reply in Welsh. Bangor University's Language Technologies Unit wrote in March 2026 that you can type Welsh into Claude or Copilot and get a surprisingly fluent reply (techiaith.cymru). The Welsh Government announced a partnership with OpenAI in June 2024 to improve Welsh in ChatGPT (gov.wales).
