Named after the Hindu deity symbolizing strength and service, Hanooman is stepping into advancing India’s AI landscape. Years of research fueled by Reliance Industries and leading IITs have brought the Indian AI tool to life, marking a significant step for Indian innovation.
March Release: Scheduled for a March release, Hanooman promises to empower individuals and businesses across the nation. It will be free to use, fostering wider adoption and bridging the digital divide.
Beyond text, Hanooman understands and responds to natural speech, making AI more accessible to diverse audiences. Like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot, it leverages NLP (Natural Language Processing) technology but focuses on India-specific needs and supports 11 local languages.
The AI Language Model is designed and developed for Indian users. It is expected to address unique challenges and opportunities, aiming to drive progress across key sectors of the country.
From healthcare and education to finance and governance, the makers say Hanooman has the potential to impact various domains, contributing to India’s overall development. However, we need to see if the capabilities of the AI tool match, outperform, or stay short of global language models.
