About
Tokhum covers startup news from Azerbaijan and Central Asia: funding rounds, products, founders and events.
What we cover
We follow six countries: Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan. Startup news only: funding rounds, product launches, acquisitions, accelerators and ecosystem data.
Stories are published in four languages: Azerbaijani, English, Russian and Uzbek.
How stories are made
We monitor sources (news sites, official announcements, founders' posts) automatically. AI extracts the facts and writes an original text; we never copy the source text.
No story is published without human approval. An editor checks every story, and the byline shows both “Tokhum AI” and the name of the reviewing editor. Every story links to its sources.
