Idea
A multilingual safety benchmark platform for LLM developers and researchers to assess and improve model safety across diverse languages and cultures
Research Paper
Core Innovation
This paper introduces LinguaSafe, a large-scale multilingual safety benchmark covering 12 languages with 45k entries. It uniquely evaluates multiple safety dimensions including direct, indirect, and oversensitivity risks, filling a gap in existing benchmarks that focus mainly on English or single risk types. The dataset and framework are publicly released to support broad adoption and improvement of multilingual LLM safety.
Market Size (TAM)
$2–10B TAM, $1–2B SAM; assumption: growing global LLM deployment and increasing demand for multilingual safety tools.
