Speak Your Requirement: How Indian SMEs Are Cutting Procurement Time by 80%

Typing a detailed Requirement takes 20 minutes. Speaking it takes 90 seconds. VyaparSethu's voice requirement feature uses Groq Whisper to transcribe in real time — then AI extracts category, budget, and timeline automatically.

The average Indian MSME owner speaks 3 languages, types slowly, and has no time for forms.

That's why VyaparSethu built the Speak Requirement feature.

How it works: 1. Tap the microphone on VyaparSethu 2. Speak your requirement in Hindi, English, or Hinglish — "Mujhe 50 MT TMT steel chahiye, IS 1786 Fe 500, Bhiwandi delivery, 15 din mein" 3. Groq Whisper transcribes in 3 seconds 4. AI extracts: category (Metals & Alloys), quantity (50 MT), grade (IS 1786 Fe 500), location (Bhiwandi), timeline (15 days) 5. One tap to post to 200+ verified steel suppliers
