Would you quit Amazon or Microsoft at 23?
That’s exactly what Rohan Vasishth and Faraz Siddiqi did. Instead of playing it safe, they took the leap — founding Bluejay , an AI startup designed to stress-test voice and text agents by simulating millions of customer interactions in minutes.

Why “Bluejay”?

Inspired by the bird that signals danger, Bluejay’s mission is simple yet ambitious:
➡️ constantly test AI agents,
➡️ expose weaknesses before real users do, and
➡️ build the “trust layer” for enterprise AI.

“We want companies to trust their AI like they trust their employees,” the founders explain.

Backed by the Best

The idea resonated. Bluejay secured $4 million in seed funding, with support from Floodgate, Peak XV, Homebrew, Y Combinator, and top AI executives.

It’s a strong signal that AI reliability and trustworthiness are becoming just as critical as speed and accuracy.

The Vision Ahead

The founders believe that in five years, every company will rely on AI agents to handle customers. And when that happens, Bluejay wants to be the backbone that ensures they work — safely, efficiently, and reliably.

Risk, Reward & Resilience

What started in a hacker house with flyers and baby onesies as hustle fuel has grown into a venture backed by Silicon Valley’s finest.

Their story is proof that sometimes, the biggest risk is staying comfortable.

Two 23-year-olds walked away from big tech salaries to chase a vision. Today, with $4M in funding and YC backing, Bluejay is on its way to becoming the trust layer for enterprise AI.
