Indian-language AI models, voice agents, and document intelligence

Sarvam

Sarvam builds AI models and applications for India's languages, serving developers, enterprises, and governments. Its developer APIs add speech recognition, speech synthesis, translation, and document digitisation to applications. Voice Agents support customer conversations, while Indus is an AI assistant for reasoning and workflows involving tools. Sarvam Vision converts documents into structured text and extracts tables and form fields, including Indian-language handwriting. Its Akshar Document Agents combine these capabilities with human review.

Founded in 2023 by Vivek Raghavan and Pratyush Kumar, Sarvam develops models alongside training and inference infrastructure. Its 30B and 105B reasoning models were trained from scratch in India using compute provided under the IndiaAI mission, with downloadable weights released in 2026. Their mixture-of-experts architecture activates selected expert networks for each token, limiting computation as total model capacity grows. A tokenizer designed for all 22 scheduled Indian languages reduces the number of tokens needed to represent Indic text.

Sarvam offers managed cloud access and enterprise deployments in private clouds, on premises, and air-gapped environments, with engineers working alongside customers to integrate agents. In June 2026, the company reported more than 2 million conversational interactions daily and 10 million API calls daily. It also announced a $234 million first close of a planned $300 million Series B at a $1.5 billion post-money valuation.
