Gnani.ai

Gnani.ai is a Bengaluru-founded (2016), voice-first agentic AI platform built on proprietary speech and NLP engines tuned for Indian and other languages. Its products span voice agents (assist365, Inya.ai), analytics (aura365), and voice biometrics (armour365), targeting enterprises in banking, financial services, and insurance. Pricing is enterprise and sales-led, with no public self-serve tiers.

Gnani.ai was founded in Bengaluru, India, in 2016 by Ganesh Gopalan and Ananth Nagaraj. Its distinguishing bet is voice-first automation built on proprietary ASR (speech recognition) and NLP engines that cover a wide range of Indian languages, rather than relying solely on third-party models. The company reports processing tens of millions of voice interactions daily across 12+ languages for 200+ enterprise clients (vendor claims), with strong traction in banking, financial services, and insurance. The portfolio includes assist365 for multichannel conversational AI automation, aura365 for omnichannel analytics, and armour365 for voice biometrics and authentication. Its newer no-code builder, Inya.ai, lets teams create, train, and publish voice agents across telephony, WhatsApp, and chat relatively quickly. Typical deployments handle inbound support, EMI and payment reminders, collections, and multilingual query resolution, and the company cites compliance with standards such as SOC 2 Type II and PCI-DSS for regulated industries. Gnani.ai raised a fresh round in 2026 (reported at $10 million / around Rs 68 crore, led by Aavishkaar Capital with Info Edge Ventures participating), and reported crossing profitability with growing revenue. It's an enterprise product with sales-led, custom pricing rather than public self-serve tiers. It fits organizations that need real-time, multilingual voice automation at scale, particularly in the Indian market, and is less relevant for small teams wanting a simple text chatbot.
