Gujarati, Hindi, English

Tenants write in Gujarati or Hindi. The bot understands and replies in kind.

What it does

PG Saathi runs in three languages: English, Hindi (हिन्दी), and Gujarati (ગુજરાતી). The classifier (Sarvam AI, India-tuned) understands native-script tenant intents like « બાકી » (Gujarati for 'balance due'), « बकाया » (Hindi), and « balance ». Mixed-script messages are handled too.

Each user has their own language preference. A Hindi-speaking tenant gets all bot replies in Hindi; their owner can be working in English from the dashboard. The setting is saved on `auth.users.user_metadata.language_pref` so it follows the user across WhatsApp and the PWA.

Adding a new language is a 30-minute job: drop in a new dictionary file, register it, and the entire UI plus bot follow. Marathi, Bengali, Tamil — when the demand shows up, the plumbing is ready.

On WhatsApp

  • Tenant types `બાકી` (Gujarati) → bot understands `balance`.
  • Owner sends `भाषा हिंदी` to switch their bot replies to Hindi.
  • Settings persist; the user never has to switch again.

On the dashboard

Top-right of every page — pick English / हिन्दी / ગુજરાતી. The cookie is mirrored to your bot session.

Why it matters

An owner in Bopal serving migrant workers from Bihar and UP needs a tool that speaks the tenants' language. Forcing English on a 25-year-old construction worker is the single fastest way to drive them back to a paper rent receipt.
