Google’s DeepMind unit in India has launched a new desktop web application that gives teachers access to a Gemini-powered assistant trained on curriculum designed by Atal Tinkering Labs under NITI Aayog’s Atal Innovation Mission (AIM).
Known as ATL Saathi, the app can be used by teachers to curate hands-on learning experiments for students. It is being rolled out to 100 schools across the country this year, with a long-term goal of reaching 10,000 schools in the future, Google said.
The search giant also announced new initiatives for Indian developers alongside the launch of AI-powered educational tools, partnerships, and product expansions designed to help Indian AI companies work with Google while complying with data localisation requirements. These announcements were made by Google at its annual I/O Connect India edition in Bengaluru on Tuesday, July 14.
Tech giants such as Google, Microsoft, and Amazon view India as a strategic growth market because of its large internet user base and vast pool of software developers. AI companies such as OpenAI and Anthropic have followed suit, establishing offices here to expand their presence in the country.
