Tattviq.ai is the intelligence layer powering Vidyākendra — transforming 3,000+ years of Indian Knowledge Systems into a living, navigable, interconnected digital universe.
India's intellectual heritage spans millennia — yet it remains fragmented, untranslated, inaccessible, and unconnected. Tattviq.ai exists to solve exactly this.
Tens of thousands of Sanskrit manuscripts exist across 7 major traditions, yet no unified system connects a concept in Nyāya to its counterpart in Vedānta, or traces how an idea evolved across centuries of commentary. Every tradition is an island.
Less than 3% of extant Sanskrit texts have been translated into modern languages. Existing translations are often outdated, culturally decontextualized, or locked behind academic paywalls. The living meaning of these texts is inaccessible to most Indians.
A student curious about karma encounters 12 distinct philosophical definitions across 6 schools. Without guided pathways, cross-traditional debates, and concept maps, they have no way to understand the intellectual landscape. Knowledge has no map.
These traditions were never static — they evolved through active debate, commentary, and refutation. Today they are presented as museum artifacts rather than living intellectual systems. The debates have gone silent. The tradition has been frozen.
Six AI-native capabilities designed specifically for the complexity, depth, and cultural sensitivity that Indian Knowledge Systems demand.
We are building the first AI-powered semantic graph connecting concepts, debates, thinkers, texts, and traditions across all major Indian philosophical schools — Nyāya, Vedānta, Buddhism, Jainism, Mīmāṃsā, Sāṃkhya, and more. Ask about dharma in one tradition and discover how six others responded, debated, and refined it.
Standard LLMs fail at Sanskrit — they hallucinate meanings, collapse compound words, and strip philosophical nuance. Tattviq trains specialized models on Sanskrit morphology, sandhi rules, and philosophical registers. We produce contextually faithful translations that preserve the argumentative structure and emotional texture of source texts.
Most people don't begin with a text — they begin with a question. "What did Indian philosophers believe about free will?" or "How did thinkers approach the nature of consciousness?" Tattviq maps a user's question to the relevant traditions, primary texts, key concepts, and ongoing debates — creating a personalised philosophical journey rather than a search result.
Indian philosophy was born through structured debate — the pūrvapakṣa-uttarapakṣa tradition. Tattviq reconstructs these intellectual contests: surfacing how the Mīmāṃsakas argued against the Buddhists on the permanence of sound, or how Rāmānuja rebutted Śaṅkara on the nature of brahman. Debates become readable, navigable, alive.
Hundreds of thousands of palm leaf and paper manuscripts remain undigitised or unreadable by current OCR tools. Tattviq's manuscript AI — trained on Devanagari, Grantha, Sharada, and other scripts — accurately digitises, segments, and indexes these texts, expanding the corpus available to Vidyākendra by orders of magnitude.
Every great Sanskrit text accumulated centuries of bhāṣya — commentary that made meaning accessible to new generations. Tattviq generates rigorous, tradition-aware contextual commentary for primary texts: explaining allusions, defining technical terms in plain language, and situating each verse within the broader philosophical conversation it participates in.
Primary Sanskrit texts are ingested, parsed, and understood at a philosophical level — not just word-by-word but argument-by-argument. Tattviq identifies thinkers, schools, concepts, and the positions each text takes.
Concepts are connected across texts, traditions, and centuries. A dynamic knowledge graph emerges — showing how a debate in 7th century Kashmir relates to a parallel argument in 12th century Varanasi, or how a Jain thinker refuted a Buddhist position.
The knowledge becomes navigable through Vidyākendra — question-based entry, concept pages, debate reconstructions, knowledge maps, and multilingual translations — all powered by Tattviq's intelligence layer running underneath.
Tattviq.ai is in early development. We are looking for scholars, technologists, and institutions who believe India's intellectual heritage deserves a digital future.
