India Monitor is a tool designed to provide verified facts and insights behind major bills, laws, events and incidents in India. Users can search for a keyword, receive a brief, and then listen to the full insight on the go. The tool aims to provide informed citizens with the knowledge to engage in political conversations. It is user-friendly, catering to students, voters and busy professionals who need to stay politically aware.

The project treats the screen as a briefing room rather than the destination, and the audio is gated on a full insight script. The tool uses Open-weight-model family of models for on-demand ENG/HIN briefings, ElevenLabs for generating audio through stored listen scripts, and Supabase for edge functions. The project emphasizes open innovation, with code available on GitHub and the model behind a small edge contract. The project was created for the Hacktoberfest Open-Source AI Challenge Week 1: Touch Grass.
