Indian News Intelligence · Built in the open

What we're building

Making India's press legible.

Every day, India's newsrooms — national dailies, regional editions, district papers — publish more than any one person can read. Samvad turns that flood into something you can actually question and understand. We build tools and open infrastructure for reading the whole newsstand at once.

Ask questions about Indian news coverage in plain English and get grounded, cited answers — every claim tied to the article it came from, not a list of links.

In the works

More to come

Source watch, alerts, and weekly digests — tracking how a story's framing drifts across outlets over time. Part of the same grounded, cited foundation.

Coming soon

Grounded, not generated

Answers are synthesised from real coverage and checked against their sources. If the corpus doesn't cover a question, Samvad says so instead of guessing.

Open where it counts

The harvesting layer that feeds the corpus is open source, so the way Samvad reads the news is inspectable — not a black box.

Built for India's newsroom

From front-page national dailies to district editions, in English — designed around how India's press actually covers a story.
