blackNgreen expands AI accessibility via telecom networks

Technology company blackNgreen (BNG) is expanding its AI-powered platforms through telecom networks to reach populations without consistent mobile internet access. The company is focusing on making artificial intelligence accessible to the approximately 3.4 billion people globally who do not use mobile internet.

A central initiative is ‘AI On Call’, a service that allows users to interact with AI via standard phone calls rather than requiring a smartphone or data connection. Currently active in more than 24 countries, the service has the potential to reach roughly 180 million subscribers.

To support this growth, BNG is increasing hiring in technology, sales, and business development sectors in India and internationally. The company utilizes large language models (LLMs), automatic speech recognition (ASR), and text-to-speech (TTS) to localize AI services into various languages and comply with local regulations.
