Prominent Investors Support Teens' AI Startup Induced AI for Browser-Native Workflow Automation

Induced AI, a startup founded by teenagers, has garnered the support of investors like Sam Altman, Peak XV, and Daniel Gross and Nat Friedman’s AI grant. The company, established in the current year, focuses on assisting businesses in automating a wide range of workflows in innovative ways.

Induced AI's platform allows businesses to input workflows in plain English, which it then converts into real-time pseudo-code for handling repetitive tasks typically managed by back offices. By creating Chromium-based browser instances, the platform can read on-screen content and control the browser in a human-like manner, enabling interaction with websites even without APIs.

The startup, led by 18-year-old Aryan Sharma and 19-year-old Ayush Pathak, aims to create an integration economy for browser-native workflows, handling complex and logic-driven processes, including two-factor authentication dialogues. Induced AI's system eliminates the need for manual tagging, as it dynamically adjusts instructions from English descriptions.

Induced AI has secured $2.3 million in seed funding from investors like SignalFire, Untitled Ventures, and SV Angel, among others. It stands out with the ability to run multiple tasks simultaneously and operate fully remotely. The startup has already attracted small to mid-sized customers, including a sales firm utilizing Induced AI for employee onboarding, and is exploring various new use cases.
