IITKGP Foundation
From IIT Kharagpur to Silicon Valley, Nikunj Bajaj and Abhishek Choudhary had spent more than a decade together, from doing hands-on robotic projects at IIT to product development at Meta. What is more, Bajaj and Choudhary wanted to impact the world through entrepreneurship. Joined by fellow Kgpian Anuraag Gutgutia, the trio founded TrueFoundry in September 2021. Within a year they have raised $2.3 million to broaden TrueFoundery's platform and hire more individuals.
TrueFoundry is a custom platform that automates repetitive tasks in the machine learning pipeline to allow data scientists and engineers to focus on higher-value, more creative tasks. It recently opened early access to its platform and is working with companies as early customers for its beta release according to a media report. It aims to do a public launch in the next couple of months.
