Sarvam

Sarvam is an AI platform developed and operated entirely in India, designed to provide advanced language technologies tailored to Indian languages and contexts. The platform offers a suite of tools including text-to-speech, speech-to-text, translation, document digitisation, dubbing, and the creation of voice agents. Sarvam’s models are described as state-of-the-art and are trained on sovereign data to deliver high performance across a range of Indian languages and dialects.

Key features include natural-sounding text-to-speech voices available in 11 Indic languages and high-accuracy automatic speech recognition (ASR) for 12 Indic languages. The translation service covers 23 languages, enabling multilingual applications and workflows. Document digitisation capabilities allow users to convert PDFs and images into structured formats, supporting broader content transformation tasks. Sarvam’s voice agents have been deployed for use cases such as automating policy inquiries, renewals, and claims in over 10 Indian languages, and collecting structured citizen feedback through conversational AI.

Sarvam provides multiple integration options for developers and enterprises. Its APIs are accessible via clean, well-documented REST endpoints, and there is a Python SDK available for rapid integration. A browser-based playground is offered for testing features without setup. The platform supports deployment flexibility, allowing users to run Sarvam in fully managed cloud environments, private cloud (VPC), on-premises, or in fully air-gapped setups for regulated industries. This ensures that organizations can deploy according to their data residency, security, and compliance requirements, with features such as role-based access, audit trails, and controls for data residency. The platform is described as enterprise-grade, with SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and DPDP compliance.

Sarvam is positioned for a wide range of users, including enterprises, government agencies, and developers seeking to build population-scale, multilingual AI applications for India. The platform highlights its partnership approach, offering dedicated engineering support for workflow design, deployment, and ongoing optimization. New users can access 100 free API credits to get started. Sarvam is intended to deliver population-scale impact by enabling AI that speaks India’s languages, supporting applications from customer engagement to government services.
