80% of Indians are more comfortable communicating in their regional language than English. Yet 90% of business AI chatbots speak only English. A customer in Patna, Jaipur, or Lucknow who messages your chatbot in Hindi and gets an English response doesn't feel served โ they feel dismissed. The businesses catching on to vernacular AI are seeing engagement rates 3x higher than their English-only counterparts.
