Vitra.ai, a Bengaluru-based startup founded by Satvik Jagannath and Akash Nidhi PS, specialises in advanced language translation solutions powered by generative AI (GenAI).

This investment is aimed at further developing Vitra.ai's innovative generative AI technology.

This investment marks IIFL Fintech Fund's first foray into the GenAI sector. Vitra.ai offers a comprehensive suite of translation products that cover videos, images, and websites in over 75 languages.

Its solutions are known for contextual precision, utilising advanced algorithms to translate complex meanings and cultural nuances. The platform supports real-time translation for text, speech, video, and audio, facilitating seamless global communication.
