Career

Prior to founding Bluejay, Siddiqi worked as an engineer at Microsoft.[2] His co-founder, Rohan Vasishth, held an engineering role at Amazon. Both were 23 years old when they left their respective positions to start the company.[3]

Bluejay operates as a quality assurance platform for AI agents that handle voice and text interactions. The company's product allows enterprises to simulate real-world conditions and stress-test their AI agents before and during deployment. The platform generates synthetic customer interactions using over 500 real-world variables, including different voices, accents, languages, and environmental noise conditions. Features include auto-generated testing scenarios drawn from agent and customer data, A/B testing, red teaming to identify vulnerabilities, and multilingual accent simulation.[4]

The company positions itself as addressing the quality assurance side of the AI industry, focusing on ensuring that deployed AI agents perform reliably under varied conditions. Bluejay's approach uses simulated customers to probe AI agents for weaknesses, providing what the company describes as actionable observability for enterprises deploying conversational AI systems.

Siddiqi and Vasishth completed Y Combinator's Spring 2025 programme and closed their US$4 million seed round shortly after launching the company. The funding round was led by Floodgate and included participation from PeakXV Partners and Y Combinator. The speed of the fundraise attracted media attention, with coverage in Business Insider, NDTV, and Yahoo Finance, among other outlets.[5]
