Gaining Momentum

Saarthi.ai (project name listed as 'ThunderWing') presents a high-potential Conversational AI technology with significant intellectual property (NVIDIA incubation, patents) and verified historical revenue (~$1M). However, the project is currently facing severe operational distress, including verified reports of mass layoffs, unpaid salaries for over a year, and legal challenges as of 2024. The submission quality is notably poor, containing placeholder text ('most people have used my product') and generic claims ('everyone') that contradict the specialized B2B nature of the business. The score reflects the residual value of the technology assets (patents/platform) heavily discounted by the ongoing financial crisis and low-effort submission.

Description
We help enterprises converse with users, in their language, across all digital channels and IVR.\n\nThis is achieved by providing Multilingual Call Center AI Agents and Conversation Analytics to enterprises based on our AI platform that can support 24 languages.\n\nSaarthi was recognized as one of the Top 20 Conversational AI Vendors globally, and also incubated by NVIDIA AI.\n\nOur platform, composed of many core patents, creates AI Agents in 24 languages and provides Conversation Analytics, from speech and text data lying unharnessed in contact centers. \n\nSaarthi's AI framework enables semantically rich and coherent dialogues, built on top of a lossless language understanding engine for low resource languages. \n\nThis sector is ripe for disruption, with apparent problems of continuity, expenses and quality of contact centers. 19% Contact Centers have human bilingual support while 52% think that the Non-English queries will rise over the next 3 years. \n\nSaarthi.ai has broken many new grounds in Conversational AI over the past 3 years, to build the responsive and aware 'interaction layer' of the future, for every service imaginable. And, we believe our story will be interesting to you. \nPlease feel free to drop us a note at hello@saarthi.ai / sangram.sabat@saarthi.ai, and we'll be thrilled to have a conversation.
