Yotta claims that myShakti aims at offering easy access to AI solutions

The company also claims that myShakti is India’s first GenAI chatbot built on DeepSeek

The chat bot is developed while keeping data security a priority

Mumbai-based Yotta Data Services has launched B2C GenAI chatbot based on Chinese Open-Source AI model DeepSeek.

Yotta claims that myShakti aims at offering easy access to AI solutions with focus on data security. The company claims that it is India’s first GenAI chatbot built on DeepSeek.Yotta’s myShakti is a response to the clarion call given by Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw to host DeepSeek within Indian borders,” said Yotta chairman and cofounder Darshan Hiranandani.

The chatbot is in its beta stage, available free of cost on a web application.

The development comes at a time when DeepSeek is making headlines across the globe. Founded in 2023, DeepSeek AI is a Chinese company which has taken the world by storm with its cost-effective AI models. Last week, DeepSeek launched its free AI assistant DeepSeek-V3, claiming that it uses less data and costs only a fraction of services offered by incumbents. 

A few days back, it also launched its AI model called Janus-Pro-7B for AI-led image generation, which, it claims, outperforms OpenAI’s DALL-E 3 and Stability AI’s Stable Diffusion.

Hiranandani and Sunil Gupta set up Yotta in 2023 as a data centre service provider, which offers datacenter colocation and tech services such as cloud services, network and connectivity, IT security and IT management services.

In March 2024, American chip maker NVIDIA  made its first major AI bet in India through Yotta, when the company invested capital to acquire the GPU manufacturer’s 16,000 chips.

Last month, Yotta made it to the government’s list of the companies shortlisted for the final bidding process to procure 10,000 graphic processing units (GPUs) under the IndiaAI Mission. Companies like Jio Platforms and Tata Communications are also on the list.
