Sarvam AI is a well-funded GenAI startup focused on creating full-stack GenAI systems and applications tailored for India. Based out of Bangalore and Chennai, Sarvam AI is a place for those who are passionate about driving significant advancements through Generative AI, have a love for Indian languages, and are eager to make a substantial impact.
Earlier this year, Sarvam AI partnered with Microsoft, announcing plans to build an Indic voice LLM. The partnership aims to release the voice LLM in the coming months, which will enable users to interact with AI systems using voice commands.
“We believe that in India, people will experience generative AI through the medium of voice,” said Vivek Raghavan cofounder, Sarvam AI, in an exclusive interview with AIM.
He added that it is very hard to input text in Indian languages and that in India, people tend to prefer voice communication over text. “We want people to do things through voice and that will be the USP of Sarvam AI.” he said.
The company is also working on building agentic systems, allowing users to not only receive information but also take action. “I hope in the next few months we’ll see some of these things being announced and released in the marketplace,” said Raghavan.
Sarvam AI will support 10 languages and hopes to expand it further in the future. The company’s focus on voice-based interfaces has numerous practical applications in the country, such as in customer support and gathering feedback, where voice-based models can efficiently handle large-scale feedback listening.
Sarvam AI was founded in 2023 by Pratyush Kumar and Raghavan. Last year, the company raised a total of $41M in a Series A funding round led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, with participation from Khosla Ventures and Peak XV Partners.
