The app
Touch the lamp and speak. Built for ₹8,000 handsets with little memory and near-full storage. If the phone closes the app mid-conversation, Asha picks up exactly where you stopped.
JanAI Asha

Eight languages
No English, no typing, no literacy needed
Speech models are tuned for dialects and for real places: livestock, water pumps and open courtyards, not a quiet studio. And the wheel keeps turning as we add more languages.

Two ways to reach Asha
In the app, or on a plain phone call
A plain phone call
Any handset, no app, no data. The plain voice call is the only channel that reaches every household, so the call carries the same help as the app.
What Asha helps with
Schemes, jobs and loans, carried through to the end
Knowing you are eligible is the easy half. Asha tracks each application, tells you what is missing, and hands you to a Doot when a person is needed.
Schemes
What you are entitled to, what to bring, and where your application stands. Twelve government schemes are live today.
Jobs
Work near your village, matched to what you can do.
Loans
Understand a loan before you sign, and apply through a provider on the network.
Built for the last mile
Made for the phone in your hand and the signal you have
Device
A low-memory build that saves as it goes, resumes journeys, and keeps your household's details on the phone.
Network
Works offline first, sends when the signal returns, and falls back to a phone call that carries the same help.
Language
Dialect-tuned speech that holds up to background noise, with no dependence on literacy or on English.
Privacy and consent
Nothing moves without your consent
Consent is built in, not bolted on: explicit, in your language, and revocable. JanAI is the Data Fiduciary under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act; providers only process what you agree to.
In your language, and revocable
You are asked in the language you speak, and you can take your consent back.
Only what is needed
Each consent is tied to one purpose, and we keep only the data that purpose needs.
Seen only by the right role
Cafe operators, Doots and providers each see only what their role requires.
A full audit trail
Every access and every outcome is recorded, as the DPDP Act requires.
Answers you can check
Every answer carries where it came from: the scheme rule or the provider's terms.
A person when it matters
When Asha is not confident, she says so and brings in a Doot rather than guessing.
