The digital platform enables users to engage with an AI companion inspired by the teachings and cultural traditions associated with Hanumanji through voice or text in 21 languages.
Ahmedabad (Gujarat) [India], July 20: Viru App, an Ahmedabad-based technology startup, has announced the launch of Talk2Hanumanji, an AI-powered conversational platform designed to provide users with a personalised, culturally familiar and devotional digital experience.
Available at talk2hanumanji.com, the platform allows users to communicate through voice or text in 21 languages. It has been developed for people seeking encouragement, reflection and a faith-inspired conversational experience at any time of the day.
Talk2Hanumanji is an artificial intelligence-based digital companion inspired by the values traditionally associated with Hanumanji, including courage, discipline, devotion, strength and selfless service. The platform does not claim to be, embody or directly represent the Hindu deity Hanumanji. It is also not intended to replace temples, scriptures, spiritual leaders, religious practices, professional counselling or medical support.
Technology Combined With Cultural Context
According to the company, Talk2Hanumanji uses conversational AI models alongside an internally developed system incorporating astrology and numerology-based inputs. These technologies are used to personalise conversations based on information voluntarily provided by users.
Users can register using their phone number, select a preferred language and provide basic birth-related details before beginning a conversation. The onboarding process has been designed to take less than a minute.
Viru App stated that the platform is intended to make technology more accessible by presenting it through a familiar cultural and devotional interface, particularly for users who may not otherwise engage with conventional AI applications.
“Technology becomes meaningful when people can interact with it in a language and cultural context they understand,” said Niraj Kanjani, Founder of Viru App and Talk2Hanumanji.
“Talk2Hanumanji is not the deity Hanumanji. It is an AI-powered devotional companion inspired by the values and teachings people associate with Hanumanji. Our objective is to create a respectful digital experience where users can pause, reflect and receive encouraging responses in their preferred language.”
Focus on Privacy and Responsible Use
The company said privacy has been incorporated into the platform’s design. Complete conversations are not intended to be permanently stored, while limited contextual information may be retained to enable continuity between interactions.
Viru App further stated that user conversations and personal information will not be sold to advertisers. The platform collects only the information required to create and personalise the user experience.
The company also clarified that Talk2Hanumanji is not a crisis-response service or a substitute for qualified mental-health professionals. Users experiencing severe emotional distress, a medical emergency or thoughts of self-harm should immediately contact an emergency service, trained counsellor or trusted person.
Built for India and the Global Indian Community
With support for 21 languages and both voice and text interactions, Talk2Hanumanji has been developed for users across India as well as members of the global Indian diaspora.
The company plans to continue improving the platform’s conversational capabilities, language accessibility, privacy controls and responsible-AI safeguards based on user feedback.
Founder Niraj Kanjani has approximately 15 years of experience in the IT outsourcing sector. He is also associated with the Langar on Wheels Foundation, an initiative that has been serving meals to approximately 200–250 people every day since March 2023, and Rice Cake, a healthy-snacking brand.
Talk2Hanumanji is currently accessible at talk2hanumanji.com.
