The platform provides serverless access to Nvidia H100 and L40S GPUs on demand, allowing users to leverage computing resources without managing the underlying infrastructure. The offer gives developers, startups, enterprises, researchers, and global capability centers (GCCs) complimentary access to build, fine-tune, and deploy AI models on serverless GPU infrastructure hosted entirely in India. Shakti Studio will also offer built-in large language models (LLMs), Whisper, vision and text-to-speech APIs, Yotta said. The platform is hosted entirely in India across Yotta's own data centers, offering in-country inferencing, low latency, and data residency by design -- positioning it for regulated sectors such as banking, healthcare, government, and manufacturing. Customers will be billed in Indian rupees with no foreign-exchange exposure.

Yotta Data Services Launches ₹10,000 Free Credits Program for Shakti Studio, India's Largest AI Development and Inferencing Platform

Yotta Data Services announced the launch of its ₹10,000 Free Credits Program for Shakti Studio, its end-to-end AI development and inferencing platform. The program gives developers, startups, enterprises, researchers and Global Capability Centers (GCCs) complimentary access to build, fine-tune and deploy AI models on serverless GPU infrastructure, entirely hosted in India. Removing the upfront cost of GPU access As organizations move from AI experimentation to production deployment, access to high-performance GPU infrastructure remains a persistent bottleneck - one that typically forces teams into reserved capacity and large upfront commitments before they can validate a single workload. Shakti Studio's free credits remove that barrier: the ₹10,000 credit runs against the platform's standard pay-as-you-go rates, so what a team builds during the trial reflects the exact cost of running it in production, with no separate "trial pricing". The complimentary credits apply across Shakti Studio's full stack: * Serverless GPUs - H100 and L40S instances billed per minute, scaling to zero when idle, with no reservations or lock-in * AI Endpoints - OpenAI-compatible APIs across the model catalogue, billed per token * Fine-Tuning and LoRA - full fine-tuning or LoRA adapters on proprietary data, on catalogue models or custom checkpoints * Bring Your Own Checkpoint - deployment of custom or externally fine-tuned models on serverless GPUs * Developer Portal - API key generation and console access for teams to go from signup to first inference token in three steps Shakti Studio provides instant, one-click access to more than 25 open-source models spanning, Large language models, Speech-to-text, Text-to-speech, Image generation and OCR. Organizations can also deploy their own custom or fine-tuned models on serverless GPUs, rather than being limited to the catalogue. Sovereign infrastructure, Transparent INR pricing Shakti Studio is 100% hosted in India across Yotta's own data centers, offering in-country inferencing, low latency, and data residency by design - positioning it for regulated sectors such as banking and financial services, healthcare, government, manufacturing, and GCCs, where data governance is non-negotiable rather than a compliance afterthought. The platform's commercial model is built around the same sovereignty principle: billing in Indian Rupees with no foreign-exchange exposure. Unlike several global AI platforms, Shakti Studio's serverless GPU and OpenAI-compatible API access carry no additional invocation or platform service fees layered on top of compute pricing. Built for India's AI builders * AI startups can prototype and ship without locking capital into reserved GPU infrastructure, scaling to zero when workloads are idle. * GCCs can build AI solutions for global parent organizations while keeping workloads and data within India's borders, with local support and INR billing. * Enterprises in regulated sectors can fine-tune proprietary models without sensitive data leaving Indian infrastructure. * Researchers and independent developers get on-demand access to enterprise-grade compute without infrastructure management overhead. Eligibility and how to claim The offer is available to new users. Teams can sign up at shaktistudio.ai with a business email - no credit card is required - submit a short credit-claim form, and complete a one-time KYC verification. Once verified, the ₹10,000 credit is applied to the account and is valid for 30 days from activation.
