Anthropic is set to offer in-country inference for its Claude AI models in India, with processing occurring on Indian servers through Amazon Bedrock, according to a statement on August 3. This development will allow data to remain within Indian borders, addressing the concerns of regulated industries like banking, insurance, and government agencies.
By hosting Claude on Indian servers, organizations can gain greater control and assurance when deploying AI technology. The move comes in response to strong demand from Indian organizations seeking local data processing capabilities. With in-country inference, Anthropic aims to transition from AI pilots to core business systems.
Irina Ghose, Anthropic's Managing Director in India, emphasized the company's commitment to a growing local team, improved performance in Indian languages, and strategic partnerships that will put AI technology to work for India. Anthropic has already expanded its India team since opening an office in Bengaluru in February, collaborating with various enterprises, digital natives, and startups, including Axis Bank, Godrej Industries, TCS, Swiggy, Zoho, InVideo, Rocket, Atlan, Data Security Council of India (DSCI), and open-source platforms MOSIP and OpenG2P.
