Voice AI Agents for Enterprises | Gnani.ai
Gnani.ai is a conversational AI company founded in 2016 in Bengaluru, specializing in voice-first AI solutions for enterprises. The company has raised $17.7M in funding across 6 rounds and generates Rs 57 Cr in annual revenue (as of March 2025). Gnani serves 200+ enterprises across India and the US, processing over 30 million voice interactions daily through its proprietary speech-to-speech large language model. The platform offers four core products: Automate365 for AI-driven customer conversation automation across voice, chat, SMS, and WhatsApp; Assist365 for real-time agent assistance during live calls; Armour365 for voice biometrics authentication; and Aura365 for omnichannel customer analytics. The low-code/no-code builder lets enterprises launch AI voice agents in days using prebuilt flows and templates, with CRM and telephony integrations that connect in minutes. Gnani's in-house ASR (Automatic Speech Recognition) and NLP engines support 20+ languages including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and other Indian languages. Pricing is enterprise-only with custom quotes — there is no self-service tier or published pricing. This is designed for large-scale deployments in BFSI, telecom, healthcare, e-commerce, and government sectors. The sales process requires discovery calls and contract negotiation, which can take weeks. For comparison, competing solutions like Dialogflow or Amazon Lex offer pay-per-use pricing starting at a few cents per interaction. Best suited for large Indian enterprises (banks, telecoms, insurance companies) that need voice AI automation at scale with Indian language support. Gnani's voice-first approach and local language depth are genuine differentiators against global players like Dialogflow or Amazon Lex. However, the enterprise-only model and opaque pricing make it inaccessible for startups or SMBs. Teams looking for quick prototyping or transparent pricing should look at alternatives like Vapi or Yellow.ai instead.

Ola Krutrim
Krutrim is Ola’s Bengaluru-based AI arm, and what it sells has changed. It launched in 2024 as an AI Studio — a no-code model-building platform with a catalogue of multilingual Indian-language LLMs — but after halting its foundation-model and custom-chip programmes in late 2025 it now trades as Krutrim Cloud, an India-hosted GPU and CPU cloud aimed at enterprises. Indian data residency is still the core pitch; the model studio largely is not.
