Read Xis an AI-powered platform built to preserve India's linguistic heritage by digitizing, translating, and making accessible the vast wealth of regional-language documents before they are lost forever.
India is home to one of the world's richest linguistic traditions — yet the physical records of this heritage are vanishing at an alarming rate.
Millions of handwritten manuscripts, letters, and archival records in Indian regional scripts are physically deteriorating. Libraries, temples, and family collections hold irreplaceable knowledge that fades with each passing year.
India's 22 official languages use 13 distinct scripts. Valuable content in one regional script remains completely inaccessible to speakers of other languages — creating vast silos of isolated knowledge.
Manual transcription by trained scholars is painstakingly slow and prohibitively expensive. India needs modern, AI-powered tools that can process thousands of documents with consistent accuracy.
“When a manuscript crumbles, it doesn't just lose paper — it loses the voice of a community, the wisdom of generations, the identity of a people.
Digitize handwritten and printed text before physical documents are lost to time, damage, or neglect.
Break language barriers by translating across 20+ Indian and global languages with AI precision.
Make regional knowledge accessible to everyone — researchers, students, communities — for free.
Give individuals the tools to preserve their own family documents, heritage letters, and cultural artifacts.
Take a photo or upload an image of any handwritten or printed document — old letters, manuscripts, signboards, temple inscriptions, government records.
Google Gemini AI analyzes the image, identifies the script automatically, and extracts text character-by-character — even from faded, damaged, or centuries-old documents.
Extracted text is instantly translatable across 20+ languages. View the original script alongside translations to verify accuracy and preserve context.
Download digitized text as PDF or TXT. Share results via unique links. Build a personal or institutional archive of preserved documents.
