Dhee-Pravega

Dhee-Pravega is a compact, low-latency agentic tool-calling model for Indian languages. Give it your function schema and a user message in any of 13 Indian languages and it replies in that language while emitting the correct tool call -- using Gemma-4's native tool-calling format, so it drops straight into the standard tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tools=...) flow with no bespoke prompting.

Version: beta-01 · Languages: 13 Indian languages — Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Odia, Punjabi, Sanskrit, Sindhi, Tamil, Telugu — plus English (typically used for the system prompt and tool schema).

What this model is for

Build in-language voice and chat agents: pass your tools + the user's message, get back a correct <|tool_call> and a reply in the user's own language. Ideal for IVR/voice bots, chat assistants, and on-device agents across Indian languages where English-only tool models fall short.

What you get

  • Lightning-fast tool callingsub-50 ms to first token on Blackwell GPUs, with a verified ~47 ms even on an RTX 4090 (prewarmed, merged bf16, ~100-token tool-calling prompt), so the tool call begins almost the instant the user stops speaking.
  • 🌐 Excellent accuracy across 13 Indian languages — Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Odia, Punjabi, Sanskrit, Sindhi, Tamil and Telugu (plus English) — picking the right function and replying in-language in every one.
  • 🗣️ Stays in the user's language — keep your system prompt and tool schema in English; the model still answers the user in their native language, consistently, instead of drifting back to English.

Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch

tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("dheeyantra/dhee-pravega")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("dheeyantra/dhee-pravega", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
                                             device_map="auto")

# System prompt carries the tool JSON schema (English); ask in any of 13 Indic
# languages and the model responds in-language, emitting function calls.
messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant with access to ..."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "मुझे दिल्ली का मौसम बताओ"},
]
prompt = tok.apply_chat_template(messages, add_generation_prompt=True, tokenize=False)
ids = tok(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
print(tok.decode(model.generate(**ids, max_new_tokens=256)[0][ids.input_ids.shape[1]:]))

A GGUF (Q4_K_M) build for llama.cpp is included when present in this repo.

Limitations

  • A small (E2B) model -- not a general reasoning or long-context LLM; best on short, tool-oriented exchanges.
  • Tool-calling fluency is strongest for tools resembling the training distribution (Glaive-style function schemas).
  • Inherits the Gemma base model's terms and its prohibited-use policy.
