Shunya Labs, in Partnershipwith Nasscom, Launches Vāķ,India’s Largest Open-Weight Voice AI Across 55 Languages

Shunya Labs, a Nasscom GenAI Cohort 1 startup, has announced the launch of Vāķ, India’s largest open-weight voice AI release, unveiled in partnership with Nasscom at the India AI Impact Summit 2026 at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. A real-time translation system spanning all 2,970 language pairs across India’s 55 mother tongues, Vāķ is accompanied by the world’s #1-ranked open-weight speech recognition model and a neural text-to-speech engine, all released simultaneously, all free to deploy. Open-weight translation model with voice preservation, <1.5s latency, and zero-shot cloning, enabling sovereign AI deployment across every Indian mother tongue In a country of 1.4 billion people with over a thousand language varieties including 61 languages spoken by more than a million people, speech AI systems that support only 5-10 Indian languages are simply inadequate. This limited coverage has compelled Indian developers, startups, and government institutions to rely on foreign APIs and overseas servers, placing citizen voice data under external terms while leaving vast linguistic communities underserved. Additionally, many Indian languages are not mutually intelligible, even within the same language family, making genuine linguistic inclusion far more complex than superficial multi-language support. As a result, major speech communities such as Bhojpuri, Rajasthani, Chhattisgarhi, and Magahi each spoken by tens of millions have remained largely excluded from mainstream AI systems. Vāķ is designed to close this structural gap by delivering comprehensive, real-time, and sovereign language coverage aligned with the full depth and diversity of India’s linguistic landscape. Shunya Labs, a Nasscom GenAI Cohort 1 startup, has announced the launch of Vāķ, India’s largest open-weight voice AI release, unveiled in partnership with Nasscom at the India AI Impact Summit 2026 at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. A real-time translation system spanning all 2,970 language pairs across India’s 55 mother tongues, Vāķ is accompanied by the world’s #1-ranked open-weight speech recognition model and a neural text-to-speech engine, all released simultaneously, all free to deploy At its core, Vāķ is a real-time Any-to-Any Translation system that converts speech in any of India’s 55 languages into any of the other 54, instantly, with end-to-end latency under 1.5 seconds. But it does more than merely translate words; it preserves the speaker’s voice, their tone, and their emotions across languages. Additionally, its Zero-shot voice cloning means that no prior training data is needed. The name Vāķ itself carries deep resonance, representing the power of speech in ancient Vedic thought. It’s the force that transforms thought into expression and gives voice to knowledge itself, and one of the oldest and most revered concepts in Sanskrit tradition. Shunya Labs’ choice of the name reflects how Vāķ is a technology that is rooted in India’s own intellectual heritage. With complete model weights publicly available for download and local deployment, any organisation can run Vāķ on its own infrastructure with no data leaving its environment. The release comprises three simultaneously launched model families. It’s these first-of-its-kind features that give Vāķ its edge. Vāķ gives any organisation the freedom to deploy entirely on their own infrastructure without calls to foreign servers, or citizen voice data leaving the country, no recurring API costs, and no dependency. For government agencies, hospitals reaching rural patients, and courts delivering justice in local languages, sovereign deployment is the foundation. With Vāķ, the full set of 2,970 translation pairs is available out of the box, making cross-linguistic citizen services, healthcare outreach, judicial access, and educational delivery technically and economically viable for the first time at a national scale. Commenting on the launch, Sourav Bandyopadhyay, Founder & Chief Scientist, Shunya Labs, said, “India does not need to depend on foreign APIs to hear its own people. With Vāķ, we are releasing the world’s best-performing open-weight Voice AI across 55 distinct Indian tongues, that is, every language with over a million speakers. This is sovereign, self-funded innovation built within the Nasscom ecosystem. Our vision is simple – every developer can build, every government can deploy, and every Indian can be heard in their own language.” Adding to this, Ankit Bose, Head of AI, Nasscom, said, “Shunya Labs, as a Nasscom GenAI Cohort 1 startup, exemplifies the kind of globally competitive innovation emerging from India’s AI ecosystem. Building high-performance, open-weight models across Indian languages reflects both technical excellence and a commitment to sovereign, inclusive AI. The introduction of Vāķ reinforces the role of the Nasscom GenAI ecosystem in enabling startups to innovate at global standards while contributing meaningfully to India’s digital future.” Vāķ’s coverage spans India’s full linguistic landscape – 43 Indo-Aryan languages including Hindi, Bengali, Marathi, Gujarati, Urdu, Bhojpuri, and Rajasthani; seven Dravidian languages including Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam; three Sino-Tibetan languages including Meitei (Manipuri), Bodo, and Garo; one Austroasiatic language, Santali; and Indian English, reaching over 1.17 billion native speakers in aggregate. The launch of Vāķ also aligns with the IndiaAI Mission, Digital India, BHASHINI, and Atmanirbhar Bharat. Shunya Labs is an advanced voice AI platform delivering real-time, on-premise solutions for speech, language, and reasoning. The company develops high-accuracy speech recognition models optimised for Indian and multilingual environments, enabling secure, privacy-first deployments across cloud, edge, and air-gapped systems for enterprises and public institutions.

The platform integrates a Bayesian multi-sensor fusion framework combining RF intelligence, acoustic detection, electro-optical surveillance, and AI-powered targeting. This approach enables rapid and highly accurate threat detection, allowing the system to identify and engage aerial threats within three seconds while simultaneously tracking more than 30 targets in swarm scenarios. “The nature of aerial threats is evolving rapidly, and traditional countermeasures are no longer sufficient against autonomous and RF-silent drones. With ICUDS, we are introducing a sovereign, AI-powered defence platform that combines multi-modal sensing, edge AI, and precision engagement capabilities to help strengthen modern airspace security while supporting India’s Atmanirbhar Bharat and Make in India initiatives.” Ashish KumarFounder and Managing Director of OptiValue Tek The system architecture follows a ‘Five Senses Doctrine,’ integrating multiple sensing and response layers to enhance situational awareness and engagement precision. RF intelligence modules analyze drone communication signals using convolutional neural networks, while acoustic arrays detect motor harmonic signatures of RF-silent drones. A panoramic electro-optical system provides continuous 360-degree visual and thermal monitoring, followed by precision optical tracking capable of delivering fire-control quality targeting for kinetic engagement. Once a threat is identified, ICUDS can deploy a layered neutralization strategy that includes both soft-kill and hard-kill mechanisms. Soft-kill capabilities include protocol-level deception, GPS spoofing, and broadband jamming, while hard-kill responses incorporate precision anti-drone interceptors designed to neutralize high-speed aerial threats. ICUDS operates on edge AI architecture, ensuring that all detection, analysis, and engagement processes are performed locally without dependence on cloud infrastructure. The system delivers classification accuracy exceeding 93 percent while maintaining an extremely low false alarm rate, making it suitable for mission-critical environments. With more than 60 percent indigenous content aligned with India’s Defence Acquisition Procedure (DAP) 2020, the system contributes to strengthening domestic defence manufacturing capabilities and supply chain sovereignty. The platform is designed for deployment across multiple operational environments including armed forces installations, border security zones, airports, strategic airbases, power plants, telecom infrastructure, and other high-value critical assets. OptiValue Tek’s entry into defence technology reflects the company’s broader vision of expanding beyond digital transformation to build intelligent, mission-critical systems that support national security, infrastructure protection, and next-generation technological sovereignty.

IIRIS Launches IntelliTracker to Strengthen Police Case Monitoring& RBI Reporting for Banks

IIRIS Consulting Pvt Ltd recently announced the official launch of IntelliTracker, a purpose-built monitoring platform designed to help banks and financial institutions manage fraud-related and law enforcement case lifecycles with structured visibility and RBI FMR 1-4-aligned reporting readiness. The product was recently showcased at the India AI Impact Expo 2026, drawing strong interest from industry stakeholders. Commenting on the launch, Dr. Vikram Singh, Advisory Leader at IIRIS, Former DGP of Uttar Pradesh, and a National Security Expert, said, “Fraud cases often move through complex, multi-layered law enforcement processes that require disciplined tracking and coordination. Institutions need structured visibility into these movements to ensure accountability and regulatory confidence. IntelliTracker brings much-needed digitisation and monitoring discipline to this interface between banks and enforcement agencies.” IntelliTracker envisions addressing the structural visibility gap by digitising case monitoring across the full lifecycle, from complaint registration to investigation tracking, court proceedings, and case closure. The platform aims to provide structured categorisation, continuous status tracking, and RBI-aligned documentation to support informed decision-making and regulatory compliance. Garry Singh, President, IIRIS, stated, “IntelliTracker is a masterpiece that will not only act as a great tool for monitoring and analysis, but also will aid higher efficacy in compliance and closure of cases; thus making business more robust.” Banks today manage thousands of fraud complaints registered across multiple jurisdictions. Case updates are often fragmented across portals, departments, and physical follow-ups. Monitoring tends to be periodic rather than continuous, while regulatory reporting remains manual and reactive. The absence of a unified, current view increases operational strain and compliance exposure. IntelliTracker addresses this gap through: IntelliTracker does not replace legal authority or enforcement processes. Instead, it enables structured monitoring, data-backed visibility, and reporting readiness, ensuring that final review remains fully under the bank’s control. The platform is now available for institutional deployment. The platform is designed to provide banks with a unified, real-time view of police-registered fraud cases while maintaining full institutional control over decision-making and enforcement actions. IIRIS Consulting Pvt Ltd is a global risk, intelligence, and advisory firm founded in India with a mission to build safer, more resilient institutions. With operations across 150+ global partner locations and offices throughout India, IIRIS delivers integrated solutions spanning forensic investigations, risk advisory, compliance, digital innovation, and law enforcement support. For over a decade, IIRIS has partnered with governments, financial institutions, and corporations to transform risk into structured, intelligence-led action, enabling stronger governance, operational resilience, and informed decision-making in complex environments.

I Know Your Name, But Are You Really You

Why corporates must understand the differ- ence between identification and verification Dr. Rajiv Mathur, PartnerMIGS Global Consulting Pvt. Ltd. Every morning at 9 o’clock, the same scene plays out in thousands of corporate offices across India. Employees arrive at the gate, show their ID cards, scan a QR code, smile at the security guard, and walk inside. The process looks smooth, efficient, and modern. Managers feel satisfied that their workplace is secure. But one day, a question quietly arises. ‘What if the person who walked in was not the person he claimed to be?’ This is where the difference between identification and verification becomes not just a technical issue, but a story about trust, risk, and resilience. Identification means knowing a name. Verification means proving the person is genuine. Most organizations stop at knowing the name. Very few check the truth. A small story with a big lesson Mr. Verma worked in a large corporate campus in Gurugram. He had an official ID card with his photograph and employee number. One evening, after a long day, he left his ID card on the tea stall near the metro station. By the next morning, it was gone. Two days later, a man entered the same office using that ID card. He looked somewhat similar to Mr. Verma. He wore formal clothes. He walked confidently. The security guard saw the card, saw the photo, and let him in. No one asked him to prove who he was. No system checked his face against stored records. No alert was generated! The office had performed identification. It had not performed verification. Nothing serious happened that day, but it could have. And that is what makes the story dangerous. Security failures are not measured by what happened yesterday, but by what can happen tomorrow. Understanding the difference in simple words I dentification is when someone says, “I am Rajesh,” and shows something to support that claim. It could be a card, a number, or a QR code. The system accepts that claim and moves on. Verification is when the system asks, “Are you really Rajesh?” and checks evidence. It may match a face, a fingerprint, or a secure digital record. Only after that proof is accepted does the system allow entry. Identification is like reading the name on a visiting card however, verification is like meeting the person and matching the face.One tells you what is presented. The other tells you what is true. Where Aadhaar enters the story India created Aadhaar to give every citizen a digital identity. It was a historic and powerful step. Aadhaar is now used in banking, telecom, government schemes, and many other services. It has brought efficiency and inclusion to millions of people. But Aadhaar is mainly an identification platform, not a complete verification system for corporate security operations. Aadhaar belongs to the ecosystem of UIDAI Aadhaar and was designed for national identity, not for managing access inside offices, factories, ports, or laboratories. Aadhaar can say, “This Aadhaar number exists.” It does not always say, “This person standing here is truly the owner of this identity in this operational context.” That difference is very important. The vulnerability of identification In many organizations today, Aadhaar QR codes or Aadhaar numbers are used as a proof of identity for entry or verification. This creates a feeling of safety because Aadhaar is trusted nationally. But trust without checking becomes blind trust. Aadhaar cards can be photocopied, QR codes can be shared, numbers can be leaked, and photos can be edited. When Aadhaar is used only as an identifier, it becomes just another card. And like any card, it can be lost, stolen, or misused. Imagine a contractor working at a construction site of a large refinery. His Aadhaar card is used for entry every day. One day, someone else borrows that card and enters. The system records the Aadhaar number, not the real person. If an incident happens, the company will have no way to know who truly entered. The system knew an identity. It did not know the human being. Why corporates need more than identity Corporates today are not just protecting buildings. They are protecting data, intellectual property, machinery, and human life. A wrong person in the wrong place can cause damage that cannot be reversed. Factories run with hazardous chemicals, IT parks handle sensitive data, hospitals deal with patient records, airports manage national security zones, ports handle cargo and customs. In all these critical places, just knowing a name is not enough – one must know the truth. This is why verification is stronger than identification. Verification actively checks authenticity. It does not assume honesty. It tests it. Resilience means the ability of a system to continue safely even when something goes wrong. A resilient system is built on verification, not on assumption. A day in two different offices Let us imagine two corporate offices. In the first office, the guard checks the ID card and allows entry. The system logs the card number. That is identification. In the second office, the system scans a QR code and matches the face of the person with a stored secure record. It checks whether the person is allowed in that area at that time. It logs the entry and alerts if something does not match. That is verification. One day, an intruder tries to enter both offices using a stolen card. The first office fails quietly. The second office stops him at the gate. Which office is resilient? The second one. The human side of verification Verification does not only protect the organization. It also protects honest employees. When systems verify people properly, there is clarity about who was present, when, and where. This prevents false blame and confusion. Imagine an incident in a laboratory. Without verification, anyone whose ID card was used that day can be blamed. With verification, the system knows exactly who entered. Verification creates. accountability. Identification creates records. There is a big difference. Why this matters…
