Multilingual Communication AI

Translation, transcription, and summarisation across Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Hindi, and English. Critical for South India GCC and IES clients.

01 PROBLEM STATEMENT

Language Barriers Inside South India GCCs are Slowing Communication, Increasing Costs, and Excluding Regional Talent

A South India GCC operated across teams in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Hindi-speaking locations alongside English-primary leadership. Internal communications required manual translation for policy documents, meeting summaries, and HR updates. Meeting transcription in regional languages was unavailable. External translation vendors were expensive and slow. New hires in regional locations took longer to onboard due to English-only documentation. Customer communications in vernacular markets lacked quality. Language was a barrier to hiring regional talent and to effective cross-location collaboration.

02 CURRENT CHALLENGES

What the South India GCC Team was Struggling With

Manual Translation

Slow and expensive

Internal communications translated manually or via external vendors. Turnaround measured in hours. Cost significant for volume work.

Meeting Transcription Unavailable

Tamil, Telugu, Kannada excluded

Meeting recordings unavailable in Tamil, Telugu, or Kannada. Participants without English fluency lost meeting content entirely.

Onboarding Delayed

English-only documentation

HR, policy, and IT documentation in English only. Regional new hires took longer to onboard. Language barrier increased ramp time.

Vernacular Customer Communication

Market credibility at risk

Customer-facing content in Tamil and Telugu markets translated inconsistently. Quality gap reduced trust in vernacular markets.
