- The platform is deployed on the BHASHINI National Language Infrastructure to support multilingual voice and language AI systems across India.
- Led by: Digital India BHASHINI Division under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology.
- The development of VoicERA involved collaboration with organizations such as EkStep Foundation, IIIT Bengaluru, and AI4Bharat.
- Features:
- VoicERA is designed to be open, modular, interoperable, cloud-deployable, and on-premise ready so that organizations can easily build scalable voice systems.
- The platform helps reduce duplication of development effort and prevents vendor lock-in by allowing multiple stakeholders to build on a shared infrastructure.
- VoicERA expands BHASHINI’s capabilities beyond translation into real-time speech systems, conversational AI, and multilingual telephony services.
- The system enables government departments to quickly launch voice-based citizen services in areas such as agriculture advice, education support, grievance redressal, and public scheme information.
- Significance: VoicERA strengthens India’s Digital Public Infrastructure by providing a secure, scalable, and inclusive voice interface for population-scale public services.
