Campaign Story

Cekura AI—formerly Vocera—is a Y Combinator-backed startup (Fall 2024 batch) that specializes in automated testing and observability for AI-powered voice and chat agents. Founded by IIT Bombay alumni, the company enables startups and enterprises to simulate thousands of real-world conversation scenarios—factoring in accents, interruptions, toxic users, and edge cases—within minutes. This ensures reliable agent behavior before deployment. From pre-production simulations to CI/CD monitoring in production, Cekura offers scenario generation, custom personas, conversational metrics tracking, alerting, and real-time analytics. Already serving 70+ clients spanning healthcare, BFSI, retail, and logistics, Cekura raised $2.4 million in seed funding to scale its reliability framework for conversational AI globally
