Kisan e-Mitra: a voice AI that answers farmers in 11 languages
Millions of farmers had questions about their PM-KISAN payments. A voice-based AI assistant now answers them any time, in their own language.
By the DigitalHelp4U team ·
Under PM-KISAN, eligible farmers receive ₹6,000 a year in three instalments. With more than nine crore beneficiaries, the questions never stop: am I eligible, has my payment been sent, why is my status pending?
What the government built
Kisan e-Mitra is a voice-based AI assistant that answers these questions around the clock. It works in 11 languages, including Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, Telugu, Kannada and Bengali, on web and mobile.
The scale
- Over 95 lakh queries answered.
- More than 53 lakh farmers helped.
What businesses can learn
- Status questions are perfect for AI. "Where is my order, payment or report?" has a clear answer in your system.
- Voice opens doors. Customers who never fill forms will happily speak a question.
- 24/7 availability builds trust. People feel looked after when they get answers at night or on holidays.
How we would apply it
