The Hyderabad City Police on Saturday launched AI-CopWriter, a first-of-its-kind AI-powered mobile app that allows officers to record, transcribe, and translate complaints in 10 major Indian languages in real time at every police station.

Any citizen can now lodge a complaint in their mother tongue. The app transcribes and translates spoken words into a complete, accurate FIR within seconds-removing language barriers and making police services more accessible to all, including migrants and non-Telugu speakers, a release from the police said.

Hyderabad Police Commissioner VC Sajjanar unveiled the AI-CopWriter and reviewed its functionality. The tool is designed to assist police personnel in streamlining documentation and report-writing through AI technology.

''Language should never stand between a citizen and justice. With AI-CopWriter, it no longer will,'' Sajjanar said while launching the app.

The app would increase operational efficiency, standardise record-keeping across over 80 police stations, reduce dependency on human interpreters and provide legally admissible transcripts.

The application is scalable and its records are audit-ready and digitally archived, the release further said.

Bluecloud Softech Solutions, along with an intern Chandu, worked closely with the city police IT Cell in developing the app.
