Participated · Seed · Aug 2025
Rifa AI develops AI-powered voice agents and an enterprise call-center platform that automates customer service conversations using advanced AI models, structured decision trees, policy-based workflows, and API integrations. Its modular, scalable voice solutions are designed to be regulatory compliant for industries such as insurance, health care, and financial services, meeting standards like HIPAA and TCPA. Founded in 2023 by IIT‑Bombay graduates Sameer Fulzele and Shubham Khoker, the company focuses on creating human-like voice agents that autonomously manage customer conversations in real time. Rifa AI has secured $1.1M in pre-seed funding led by Seaborne Capital with participation from NASSCOM and FalconX. The funding will be used to grow its pre-seed fund, expand operations in North America, and extend its platform to more enterprise customers, particularly in high-compliance environments. The company emphasizes data integrity, security, and compliance while aiming to bridge the gap between intelligent voice technology and regulated enterprise workflows.
