சிந்தை
The Tamil language layer for world-class AI.
Frontier models are the best general reasoners in the world. They are not Tamil-native. SindhAI is the layer in between: morphology, honorifics, register, retrieval and evaluation, so the most capable models can understand, write and act in Tamil with linguistic and cultural fidelity.

VERIFIED TAMIL, BACK TO YOUR APPCHECKED AGAINST TAMIL GRAMMAR AND DOMAIN TOOLS
How it works
Four jobs a raw model cannot do.
The frontier model stays the reasoner. The layer takes over the parts of Tamil it cannot be trusted with, before the prompt goes in and before the answer comes out.
Understand
Tamil the way Tamils actually write and speak: agglutination, case, gender, tense, diglossia, code-mix.
Retrieve
The right Tamil knowledge: laws, textbooks, literature, government forms. Not hallucination in elegant Tamil.
Generate
With controllable register: a grandmother, a collector's office, a Class 10 science teacher, a court.
Verify
Output checked against Tamil grammar and domain tools before it leaves the system.
Tools / SDK
The same layer, as an API.
Analyse morphology, correct case and agreement, set the honorific level, normalise Tanglish to Tamil script, retrieve from a Tamil knowledge base, and score output on the SindhAI eval suite. Attaches to Claude or any open model.
Read the docs// Spoken Tamil, Tanglish or English in.
// Official Class 10 Tamil out.
import { SindhAI } from "@sindhai/sdk";
const sindhai = new SindhAI({
model: "claude",
});
const out = await sindhai.rewrite({
text: source,
// spoken | literary | official
register: "official",
// class5 | class10 | official
level: "class10",
honorific: "respectful",
// Tanglish → Tamil script
script: "tamil",
});
const report = await sindhai.evaluate(
out, { suite: "grammar+register" }
);Products
One layer. A family of tools.
Every product below runs on the same layer, so a fix to honorifics or register lands everywhere at once.
- First product
SindhAI Studio
Tamil-first workbench: chat, translate, rewrite and document tools, powered by frontier models through the layer.
- 02
SindhAI Chat
Tamil-first assistant. Talk in Tamil, Tanglish or English; answers stay in Tamil.
- 03
SindhAI Translate
English ↔ Tamil and Tamil ↔ other Indian languages, with control over spoken vs literary, honorifics and kinship terms, official tone, names and untranslatable cultural terms.
- 04
SindhAI Rewrite
Paraphrase at a chosen reading level: Class 5, Class 10 or official. Summarise long Tamil PDFs, extract entities, dates and clauses, convert spoken ↔ formal Tamil.
- 05
SindhAI Tools / SDK
The API. Morphology, case and agreement, honorific level, Tanglish normalisation, Tamil retrieval and the eval suite. Attaches to Claude or any open model.
- Coming
SindhAI Voice
Speech recognition and synthesis on the same layer. Next on the roadmap, not ready yet.
The problem
Tamil is still treated as an add-on.
Tamil has more than 80 million speakers and classical-language status, yet production AI still treats it as an add-on. Frontier models fragment Tamil tokens, miss case and agreement, drop honorifics, ignore spoken Tamil and Tanglish, and slide back into English mid-answer.
- fragmented tokens
- missed case + agreement
- dropped honorifics
- no spoken Tamil, no Tanglish
- drifts to English
Principle 01
Adapt, don't replace.
The best reasoners already exist. The work is making them Tamil-native, not building a smaller one.
Principle 02
Tamil-native tools.
Not English products with a Tamil toggle. Register, honorifics and script are first-class parameters.
Principle 03
Open to developers and institutions.
Government, education, media and enterprise plug Tamil competence into their own systems.
Principle 04
Durable public goods.
Evaluation benchmarks, curated corpora, tool schemas and adapters that outlive any one chatbot.
