So, ultimately, to the question, what exactly is Sarvam AI? Is it a company that builds LLMs cheaply and open-sources them? Is it India’s Deepseek? Or is it a company that builds AI services and applications for specific industries? Like, say, Scale AI? Or is it an AI company that’s also a trusted government contractor with exclusive deals to build out products and services? Like India’s Palantir? Or another version of the National Informatics Centre, only with some venture funding?

I think they did work with a few state governments and defence entities. So something like micro-Anthropic X Palantir.
