Kannada AI voice agent for real business calls

Kannada is the state language of India’s largest technology market, and the one most often skipped by platforms that ship "Indian languages" as a checkbox. A business answering in Kannada in Bangalore reads as local in a way its competitors usually do not.

The hard part

Kannada rarely arrives alone

Bangalore is the densest language mix in the country on a single phone line — Kannada with English, Tamil, Telugu and Hindi all plausible from the same caller. The hard part is not Kannada itself; it is that a Kannada line is really a five-language line, and any design that asks the caller to declare a language up front has already lost.

No language menu

The agent does not ask a caller to choose before it will listen. Kannada, English, Tamil, Telugu and Hindi are all live on the same line.

Set in a real Kannada face

Noto Sans Kannada, self-hosted, rather than whatever the browser falls back to.

Regional stack, dearer a minute

Kannada runs on the regional speech stack. The pricing page shows a range rather than one number because of exactly this.

Questions

Kannada on a real phone line

Does the agent really speak Kannada, or is it translating?

It speaks it. Kannada runs on a speech stack trained on Indian languages rather than a general multilingual model with Kannada in its list, and mixing with English inside a sentence is the default register rather than a mode you switch on.

Can one agent handle Kannada and other languages on the same number?

Yes, and it should. The agent does not ask a caller to choose a language before it will listen, and it follows a caller who switches mid-call. All seven Indian languages are live on the same line, plus any language the underlying voice stack supports.

What does a Kannada call cost?

Kannada runs on the regional speech stack, which costs more per minute than Hindi or English — so the same credit buys fewer Kannada minutes, and our pricing page shows included calling as a range rather than one number for exactly that reason. Plans start at ₹2,999/month with the number and telephony included. Exclusive of 18% GST.

Is the call recorded and transcribed?

Every call, with a QA score on all of them rather than a sample. Data is resident in India by default — AWS Mumbai, ap-south-1 — with US and EU available for teams serving customers outside India.
