Sarvam.ai is India’s first indigenous AI language model, developed to represent Indian languages and innovation in global AI. Learn about its launch, features, and future.
🤖 What is Sarvam.ai?
Sarvam.ai is India’s first fully homegrown large language model (LLM), built to revolutionize AI capabilities in Indian contexts, especially for Indic languages.
Launched in 2025, it is the brainchild of founder Vivek Ramaswamy, in partnership with technologists and AI researchers deeply rooted in India’s linguistic and cultural diversity.
Sarvam.ai is a landmark initiative to ensure India is not just a user of global AI — but a contributor and innovator in the space.
🧠 Why is Sarvam.ai Important?
In the age of AI dominance, most powerful LLMs like GPT, Gemini, and Claude are built in the West and trained primarily on English or other global languages.
Sarvam.ai changes the game by:
- 🗣️ Supporting Indian languages natively (Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali & more)
- 🌍 Reflecting Indian culture, values & local data
- 🛡️ Ensuring data privacy through on-soil data practices
- 🇮🇳 Empowering Bharat-first use cases: agriculture, education, healthcare, legal, governance
India is the world’s largest democracy — and Sarvam.ai ensures its voice is heard in the AI revolution.
