Ola’s artificial intelligence platform, Krutrim, unveiled its mission to foster innovation in India’s AI sector by empowering developers with advanced tools and services. With the introduction of mobile apps for its AI assistant and the availability of Krutrim Cloud, the company aims to democratize AI development and lower barriers to entry for businesses and researchers.
Krutrim Cloud provides access to robust AI computing infrastructure, including core and open-source models, along with essential location services APIs and SDKs. This initiative enables developers to create cutting-edge technology products at significantly reduced costs, catering specifically to Indian needs.
“We are building our own technology to do energy management to make the most efficient data centres in the world. The cloud cost we pay is the same as the amount paid by American developers. How is it justified? We will resolve that.”
Bhavish Aggarwal, CEO
The Krutrim assistant app, powered by Krutrim’s language model trained on extensive data, supports over 10 Indian languages and offers seamless integration with other apps. With plans for voice command support and enhanced multi-modal capabilities, the app promises to simplify AI integration into daily life and provide personalized experiences for users.
Bhavish Aggarwal, Founder of Ola Krutrim, emphasized the importance of building comprehensive AI capabilities in India to support the country’s development goals. By leveraging Krutrim Cloud’s resources, developers can build scalable products tailored to Indian requirements, driving innovation and economic growth in the region.
