GenAI Platform Hanooman Launches in 98 Global Languages
Launched in 98 global languages, including 12 Indian languages, "Hanooman" is India's native multilingual GenAI platform. 3AI Holding Limited and SML India want to create an ecosystem of Gen AI for India by utilizing the nation's rich linguistic and cultural legacy.
Lord Hanuman's name serves as the platform's name, signifying its commitment to leveraging GenAI's potential for good. We want Hanooman to use all of his might, power, and wisdom to give humanity the same GenAI capability that he gave Ram. SML India has worked with 3AI Holding to develop Hanooman. According to the company, the platform aims to have 200 million users within the first year of its launch.
During the launch, SML India declared its collaboration with notable technological pioneers and leaders such as Yotta, NASSCOM, and HP. Yotta will support SML India's operations by providing GPU cloud infrastructure through the agreement. Furthermore, SML India and NASSCOM are collaborating on other projects, including assisting AI startups, encouraging fintech innovation, interacting with 3,000 institutions, and taking part in research programs.
Vishnu Vardhan, Co-Founder & CEO, SML India, said, “Hanooman represents a new era of AI innovation in India. With its launch, we aim to impact the lives of 200 million users within the first year alone. 80 per cent of Indians can’t use English, hence, Hanooman’s capabilities to support Indian languages will bring Gen AI to the reach of everyone in India and open massive opportunities for companies and startups bringing Gen AI products to the market.”
The Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances (DARPG) and the Government of Telangana have also partnered with the company to enable smooth translation between Telugu and English, improving accessibility and comprehension of important documents like court decisions.
Currently, the web and app are available in 12 Indian languages: Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Sindhi, Bengali, Odia, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali, Kannada, Punjabi, Assamese, and Hindi. Hanooman will also support 80 other languages worldwide in addition to a wide range of global languages like English, Spanish, Italian, German, Japanese, and Korean.

Hanooman, with integration-ready pipelines integrating into current products, intends to serve four industries: financial services, education, healthcare, and governance. In addition to providing a closed-source model designed for businesses in need of on-premise solutions, Hanooman is expected to provide an open-source substitute for Large Language Models (LLMs) that are available for purchase.
