Open Source Data for various requirements via a single platform with pre-defined rules and guidelines, free of cost or at fair costs as agreed between data owners and users.
With the rapid advancement in Artificial Intelligence, one of the biggest obstacles to developing AI models in India is the lack of adequate, high-quality local data. Subsequently, a holistic, supportive, and harmonious innovation ecosystem is essential. The Data Daan Initiative attempts to overcome this by democratizing access to data, creating a foundation for AI-driven solutions that will fuel India’s growth. It is envisaged as a nationwide voluntary program for the donation of private, anonymised data in the interest of the collective good. It would enable startups and researchers building AI-based solutions to access relevant, usable and, contextually appropriate data for training models and analysis.
Usable
Data vetted and curated by an in-house team to ensure it is ready to use by developers for their AI models.
Responsible
Data sourced with the consent of data owners. With proper flagging mechanisms to call out “bad” data by users.
