Namma Guide

Founding community · Bengaluru

Build useful AI together—small room, real systems, open learning.

NammaGuide AI Community is a founder-led initiative for people who want to inspect, build, and responsibly apply modern AI. The first proposed meetup is intentionally limited to 10–20 participants so every person can contribute.

Why gather

A community grounded in working evidence.

The starting point is the NammaGuide AI Lab: real assistant surfaces, local and hosted model routing, Graph RAG, public-source retrieval, evaluation, privacy controls, and open repositories. Participants should leave understanding both what works and what still needs proof.

Agent systems

Routing, tools, state, human gates, and failure recovery.

Grounded retrieval

Graph RAG, public sources, citations, caching, and evaluation.

Local AI

Private gateways, open models, memory constraints, and acceleration.

Open artifacts

Reusable code, benchmarks, diagrams, and honest implementation notes.

Proposed day

Demonstrate, question, design, publish.

The format stays compact so the meetup produces relationships and useful technical output—not a day of passive presentations.

  1. 01

    Open the AI Lab

    A live walkthrough of the private model gateway, topic-aware RAG, multi-agent flow, privacy controls, observability, and failure handling.

  2. 02

    Architecture roundtable

    Builders inspect the design decisions, tradeoffs, evaluation gaps, and what would change on accelerated local AI infrastructure.

  3. 03

    India problem workshop

    Small groups frame one common civic or public-service problem without collecting sensitive citizen information.

  4. 04

    Open build commitments

    Choose a compact artifact to publish: a benchmark, adapter, evaluation fixture, reference flow, or documented lesson.

Sponsor or ecosystem collaborator

Help make the first room possible.

Support can be in-kind or financial. Sponsor involvement does not buy technical conclusions, participant data, government endorsement, or exclusive ownership of community output.

  • A Bengaluru room for 10–20 people
  • Display, reliable internet, and basic event support
  • Refreshments or participant travel support
  • GPU, cloud, or developer-platform credits for demonstrations
  • Technical speakers, mentors, or architecture reviewers
  • Optional recording support for an open learning recap
