Deloitte India’s GenW.AI puts low code AI on a fast track
Made-in-India platform aims to help enterprises build apps and agents at speed.
MUMBAI: Innovation just got a shortcut key. Deloitte India is set to launch GenW.AI, an indigenous, next-generation low-code platform designed to help enterprises rapidly prototype and deploy applications and AI agents, without the usual complexity that slows big ideas down. GenW.AI will make its official debut at the India AI Impact Summit in New Delhi next week, marking what Deloitte calls a category-first, fully India-built platform that brings low-code development and agentic AI together under one roof.
Built for speed and flexibility, GenW.AI is offered both on-premise and on cloud, giving enterprises full control over their data and intellectual property. The platform is designed to integrate seamlessly with enterprise technologies and a wide range of large language models, allowing organisations to adapt as sovereign and enterprise-grade AI ecosystems evolve.
At its core, GenW.AI is positioned as a democratiser of innovation. From stitching together data scattered across departments to building workflows, dashboards and explainable AI-driven decision tools, the platform aims to let teams build faster, cheaper and with fewer dependencies on large, bespoke technology programmes.
Deloitte South Asia chief operating officer Nitin Kini said enterprises are increasingly moving away from one-off AI projects towards platforms that allow business and IT teams to co-create safely. He noted that GenW.AI is built for leaders who want speed without sacrificing compliance, data privacy or long-term resilience.
The platform brings together a suite of tools under the GenW.AI umbrella. GenW App Maker enables rapid application development with integrations across databases, APIs and third-party services. GenW Playground focuses on data exploration and dashboard creation without the need for code. GenW RealmAI provides a secure, low-code environment to work with generative AI and Retrieval-Augmented Generation, while GenW Agent Builder allows teams to visually create and manage AI agents, from simple chatbots to complex multi-agent systems.
Deloitte India partner and chief disruption officer Jagdish Bhandarkar said the real challenge for enterprises is not whether to adopt low-code or AI, but how to do it with guardrails, scale and speed. He added that GenW.AI is designed to put innovation into the hands of domain experts, enabling them to solve everyday problems while maintaining enterprise-grade oversight.
GenW.AI is built to integrate with enterprise applications and ERPs through pre-built connectors, supports both open-source and enterprise LLMs, and includes security features such as role-based access, encrypted agent-to-agent communication and auditability. Deloitte India has already deployed the platform internally, refining it through real-world use before opening it up to clients.
As enterprises race to turn AI ambition into usable outcomes, Deloitte India’s GenW.AI is positioning itself as a home-grown platform built not just to experiment, but to scale ideas that are ready to work in the real world.

India leads global adoption of ChatGPT Images 2.0 in first week
From anime avatars to fantasy covers, users turn AI visuals into culture
NEW DELHI: India has emerged as the largest user base for ChatGPT Images 2.0, just a week after its launch by OpenAI, underlining the country’s growing influence on global internet trends.
While the tool was introduced as an advanced image-generation upgrade within ChatGPT, Indian users are quickly reshaping its purpose. Instead of sticking to productivity-led use cases, many are embracing it as a creative playground for self-expression, storytelling and online identity.
From anime-style portraits and cinematic headshots to tarot-inspired visuals and fictional newspaper front pages, the model is being used to create highly stylised, shareable content. Features such as accurate text rendering, multilingual prompts and the ability to generate detailed visuals with minimal input have helped drive rapid adoption.
What sets the latest model apart is its ability to “think” through prompts, generating multiple outputs and adapting to context, including real-time web inputs. But the bigger story lies in how users are engaging with it.
In India, trends are already taking shape. Popular formats include dramatic studio-style lighting edits, LinkedIn-ready headshots, manga-inspired avatars, soft pastel “spring” aesthetics, AI-led fashion moodboards, paparazzi-style visuals and fantasy newspaper covers. Users are also restoring old photographs, creating tarot-style imagery and experimenting with futuristic design concepts.
Local flavour is adding another layer. Prompts such as cinematic portrait collages and Y2K-inspired romantic edits are gaining traction, blending global aesthetics with distinctly Indian internet culture.
The surge reflects a broader shift in how AI tools are being used in the country, moving beyond utility to creativity. As younger users, creators and social media enthusiasts experiment with new visual formats, AI-generated imagery is increasingly becoming part of everyday digital expression.
If early trends hold, ChatGPT Images 2.0 may not just be a tech upgrade but a cultural moment, giving millions a new visual language to play with online.
