CoRover unveiled BharatGPT Mini, India’s first offline multilingual AI model at VivaTech 2025 conference in Paris.
BharatGPT Mini is a compact small language model (SLM) with 534 Mn parameters optimized for areas with limited internet access.
The model supports 14 Indic languages and is designed for offline use in diverse sectors.
It is built in India by CoRover, providing a practical alternative to cloud-dependent models.
BharatGPT Mini is available via CoRover Builder for building and deploying AI assistants.
The model is intended for sectors like healthcare, education, banking, and government services.
CoRover aims to democratize access to intelligent conversational AI agents with BharatGPT Mini.
Founded by Ankush Sabharwal, Kunal Bhakhri, and Manav Gandotra, CoRover raised $4 Mn last year and operates in India's growing AI market.
The Indian AI market is expected to exceed $17 Bn by 2030, with BharatGPT Mini catering to the demand for privacy-focused AI tools.
While large language models (LLMs) are crucial for complex tasks, smaller SLMs like BharatGPT Mini offer faster deployment and efficiency.
Integration of BharatGPT Mini can enhance project pipelines by 60-70% and drive a fivefold increase in SLM adoption by small and mid-sized businesses by FY26.
