Hiring is one of the biggest challenges for founders and business leaders—especially in fast-growing startups where time is scarce, bandwidth is limited, and hiring the right people is critical.
Sorting out countless resumes, scheduling interviews, and screening candidates should not be part of a founder’s duty. They should be able to focus on strategic planning, right hiring decisions and building relationships.
But in this busy business world, where the hiring process has a traditional approach and is slow and inefficient, founders get lost in this noise and are unable to prioritise the best candidates. Here Babblebots AI recruiters’ role has come in.

Unlike traditional hiring tools that just post jobs or filter CVs, Babblebots AI takes over the entire recruitment process—right from sourcing to interview scheduling. This allows founders and hiring managers to focus on what really matters—making the right hiring choices.
“We help founders and business leaders spend time with the most qualified candidates rather than getting bogged down in hiring admin,” says Roli Gupta, founder of Babblebots. “Our AI recruiters handle sourcing, screening, interview coordination, and candidate engagement—so hiring feels effortless.”

From Idea to Revolution: How Babblebots Started?
Babblebots was not established overnight. Roli Gupta, an IIT Bombay alumna with an MBA from UC Berkeley, founded Babblebots after experiencing firsthand the problems in the hiring process, especially in the startups.
After four startups and two corporate jobs, Roli identified the loopholes in the hiring system. The recruitment process was still slow, inefficient and largely dependent on manual processes. Hiring managers, even with advanced HR tech, were struggling to recruit the right talent. The process inefficiencies were the same whether in India, or the Silicon Valley.
So the main idea for Roli was to develop an AI-driven model that doesn’t just assist with hiring, but provides a solution that completely transforms the process for better.
Launched in 2022, Babblebots has since:
● Worked with 100+ companies across the US and India, covering 500+ role types ● Built a client base that includes businesses like Alkem Laboratories, Welspun
Enterprises, MJ Biopharm, Indus Towers, IIT Bombay’s DRF, and dozens of other startups
● Raised $1.2 million from Anchorage Capital Partners, BonBillo, Z21 Ventures, AheadVC, and prominent serial entrepreneurs like Rakesh Mathur
