The most powerful AI models in the world are built primarily for English speakers. But for the vast majority of our country and the Global South technology can often feel foreign. When a student, a farmer, or a small business owner cannot interact with the future in their own mother tongue, they are quietly left behind. We risk losing our cultural nuance and our unique voice in the digital age.<\/p>\n<p>Soket AI Labs is stepping in to make sure our languages, and our people, have a place at the frontier of intelligence.<\/p>\n<p>Founded in Bengaluru by Abhishek Upperwal, Soket AI Labs is a deeply research-driven firm building open, multilingual foundation models from the ground up.<\/p>\n<p>Abhishek and his team realized that true intelligence requires cultural context. So, they did the hard work of building their own large-scale models, like Pragna and Project EK&#923;. These are sovereign AI systems trained specifically to understand the rhythm, the emotion, and the deep linguistic diversity of our local languages. They sit quietly as the foundation, allowing developers to build tools that feel native and natural to the people using them.<\/p>\n<p>What makes Soket AI Labs so special is the deep respect they have for inclusion. They completely remove the heavy barrier of language. By choosing to build in the open and focusing on responsible, energy-efficient AI, they give millions of people the dignity to access world-class technology without having to change who they are. It replaces a feeling of exclusion with a quiet, reliable sense of belonging.<\/p>\n<p>The market? Developers, enterprises, and governments across India and the Global South who want to build the next generation of inclusive, accessible technology.<\/p>\n<p>Abhishek is a true change agent. He looked at a global technological race and chose to focus on the deeply human need to be understood in our own voice. Seeing our homegrown founders build sovereign, world-class infrastructure that protects our cultural identity is a beautiful reminder of the larger, unfinished agenda we are all part of. They are giving people their digital momentum back.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s celebrate the builders.<\/p>\n<p>w\/ Jay Ingle &amp; Dikshant Joshi<\/p>\n<p>#DeepTech #ProductNation<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For all the incredible progress happening in artificial intelligence, there is a quiet, profound gap.
