Core Principles and Vision
Sarvam’s thesis for AI in India centers on four key ideas tailored to India’s unique needs.
First, AI should be voice-enabled and cater to the country's many languages, making AI
accessible to all. Second, India needs small, efficient AI models that can be customized for
specific applications. Third, India requires AI agents that can perform tasks, not just provide
information, simplifying daily life for users. Finally, AI development must respect India's
sovereignty, keeping data within the country and adhering to local laws.
We aim to democratize AI access across India, bridge the digital divide, foster innovation, and
enhance the robustness, performance, and cost-effectiveness of GenAI applications.
