an India-first AI lab · est. 2026

We build AI for the way India really talks.

Jatayu Labs is a small lab training its own speech and language models, tuned to the accents, the code-switching, and the things left unsaid. We put them to work in real products people use every day.

Speech + language models Hindi · English · Hinglish Made in India

what we build

A stack for Indian speech & language.

Three models, trained by us, around how people here actually speak. Everything we ship sits on top of them.

श्रवण

Speech → Text

Listening that hears Hindi, English and the Hinglish in between: accents, interruptions and all.

hi · en · hi-en / streaming
वाणी

Text → Speech

Voices with the warmth and cadence of Indian speech, not a borrowed accent reading a foreign page.

natural prosody / code-switch aware
भाषा

Language

Models that know the festivals, the food, the cities, and the way a request is really phrased here.

grounded / tool-using / multilingual

note: the models come first; the products are what we prove them on.

what we've shipped

Our products.

We build things that put the models to work in everyday life. The first one is live. More are on the bench.

why companion is different

It finishes the job.

Plenty of AI tools stop at a clever answer. Companion goes one step further. It actually does the task and hands you the result. You say the thing, it does the thing, you get the receipt.

why the bird?

Why Jatayu.

Jatayu is the watchful one of the Ramayana, the great bird who saw Sita carried off and rose against Ravana, old and outmatched as he was. Defeated, he spent his last breath on the one thing that mattered: the direction Ravana had flown. One true word, and the rescue had its beginning.

Sight is worth little without the word that follows it.

An intelligence worth building works the same way. It watches closely, understands what it sees, and returns the one word that lets a person act, at the moment it counts.

Three lines from one old story.

CHIT · 01

Watch with care.

Notice clearly before acting. A guardian's first job is attention, not announcement.

CHIT · 02

Say what is true.

An honest answer, an honest limit, an honest error. The real word, not the convenient one.

CHIT · 03

Make the last word count.

One precise word can set a rescue in motion. Every reply is built like it's that one.

जटायु

Built in India, for the many ways India speaks.

We're early, we're small, and we're building the stack from the ground up: models, products, sab kuch. Come try it, or come build it with us.
