Product overview

Sarvam AI develops state-of-the-art LLMs like Sarvam 30B/105B, speech models (Bulbul TTS, Saaras STT), translation (Sarvam Translate), and vision (Sarvam Vision), all optimized for 10+ Indian languages. Used by enterprises, governments, and developers for conversational agents, document processing, and population-scale apps via cloud/on-prem deployments.
