Your helpful guide to accessible meetings.

Follow what is said and shown in meetings. Saarthi combines shared-screen content and meeting audio to give visually impaired users short spoken answers, during a meeting or when reviewing a saved recording.

Built by visually impaired developers who know the barriers of an inaccessible workplace firsthand, and shared freely to help others succeed at work.

For: Blind and low-vision learners and working professionals

• Live questions about the last 30 seconds
• Search and ask about saved meetings
• Keyboard shortcuts and screen-reader support

Free, open-source Windows 10/11 download. Enter your own Nebius Token Factory and Sarvam API keys in Settings. Provider usage may incur charges.

Download the free Windows app (EXE, approximately 206 MB)

For the best experience, run Saarthi locally on Windows. Step-by-step Windows download and key-setup guide.
