Tamil & Indian NLP

Tamil is not English with different letters. Our AI knows the difference.

Tamil is agglutinative. One word can be a whole sentence. Generic multilingual models butcher it. We build models that understand morphology, sandhi, and code-mixed reality.

What it's like working with us
The generic models got Tamil wrong in ways that would embarrass us. Ligio's models don't.

07common questions
01Why not use Google Translate?
Translate is a translator. It doesn't understand. For intent classification, entity extraction, sentiment — you need models trained on the language, not post-translation English.
02Can you handle mixed-script text?
Yes. Tanglish ("vanga saapdalam") and Hinglish ("kal milte hain") are first-class. We train on mixed-script corpora explicitly.
03What about rare languages like Konkani or Maithili?
Possible but harder — less training data available. We'd source corpora and annotate more heavily. Timeline and cost go up accordingly.
04How long does a typical engagement take?
Most projects run 10-18 weeks from kickoff to production launch. We share a milestone plan in week one and update weekly.
05Do you sign an NDA?
Yes. Standard mutual NDA on request, before the first technical conversation.
06Who owns the code and IP?
You do. Code is in your GitHub org from day one. All IP transfers unambiguously on delivery.
07What does your pricing model look like?
For v1 builds: fixed scope, fixed milestones. For ongoing work: monthly retainer with a defined team. We don't do time-and-material surprise billing.
