Cekura is a Y Combinator–backed startup redefining AI voice agent reliability. Founded by IIT Bombay alumni with research credentials from ETH Zurich and proven success in high-stakes trading, our team built Cekura to solve the cumbersome, error-prone nature of manual voice agent testing.

We automate the testing and observability of AI voice agents by simulating thousands of realistic, real-world conversational scenarios—from ordering food and booking appointments to conducting interviews. Our platform leverages custom and AI-generated datasets, detailed workflows, and dynamic persona simulations to uncover edge cases and deliver actionable insights. Real-time monitoring, comprehensive logs, and instant alerting ensure that every call is optimized and production-ready.

In a market rapidly expanding with thousands of voice agents, Cekura stands out by guaranteeing dependable performance, reducing time-to-market, and minimizing costly production errors. We empower teams to demonstrate reliability before deployment, making it easier to build trust with clients and users.
