Namaste, language enthusiasts!

The internet has become our global village, where ideas, stories, and knowledge are shared at lightning speed. But have you ever wondered if this village is truly inclusive? Or is it an echo chamber where English dominates the conversation?

Team Srujanee believes that the richness of Indian languages deserves a vibrant presence online. We're building a platform where every language, dialect, and regional expression can flourish. But why does this matter? Here's why we think the internet needs to move beyond English:

1. A Treasure Trove of Culture and Heritage

Each Indian language carries a unique legacy of history, traditions, and wisdom. From the ancient epics of Sanskrit to the vibrant folk songs of Bhojpuri, our languages are living archives of our collective identity. When we create content in these languages, we're not just communicating; we're preserving a cultural treasure.

2. Empowering the Next Billion Users

India is home to over 1.3 billion people, and a vast majority are more comfortable expressing themselves in their mother tongue. In fact, a KPMG-Google study estimated that by 2021, Indian language internet users constituted for about 75% of India's entire internet user base. By creating content in Indian languages, we're opening doors for millions to access information, education, and opportunities that were previously out of reach.

3. The Power of Local Voices

The internet has given us a global platform, but it's the local stories that truly resonate. A Common Sense Advisory study found that 72% of consumers spend most or all of their time on websites in their own language. Whether it's a grandmother sharing a traditional recipe in Marathi or a young entrepreneur pitching a business idea in Tamil, these authentic voices create a vibrant tapestry of experiences that enrich us all.

4. A Boost for Business and Innovation

Did you know that consumers are more likely to engage with brands that communicate in their native language? According to the Harvard Business Review, 65% of multilingual internet users prefer content in their native language, even if they understand English. By creating content in Indian languages, businesses can tap into a vast market and build stronger relationships with their customers.

5. A More Inclusive Digital World

Language is more than just words; it's a way of thinking, feeling, and connecting. By embracing multilingualism online, we're creating a more inclusive digital world where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. UNESCO recognizes linguistic diversity as a fundamental human right.
