Free and open source Indian language technology for the majority of India that does not speak English.

Most Indian languages are now available on smartphones. This was not always the case. For decades, digital spaces did not include Indian language scripts. Indic Project solved a central problem—bringing native languages to keyboards, screens, and software.

We built Indic Keyboard for Android, Varnam for transliteration, Dhvani for text-to-speech, and LibIndic as a platform for programmable language processing libraries—morphological analyzers, stemmers, syllabifiers, spell checkers, and text similarity tools.

Language technologies should be owned by the communities that use them. Every project is released under free software licenses. No proprietary lock-in. No data extraction.
