Vapi

Vapi provides a developer-first infrastructure and orchestration layer for deploying AI voice agents at enterprise scale. The platform handles telephony internals, offers sub-500ms latency, supports over 100 languages, and includes built-in guardrails to prevent model hallucinations and ensure data integrity. Enterprise customers can configure voice and conversation flows, integrate with CRMs and EHRs, and scale to millions of calls with contractual uptime guarantees, dedicated deployment support, and compliance certifications including SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI.

Founded by University of Waterloo classmates Jordan Dearsley and Nikhil Gupta, Vapi grew out of an AI therapist project and a previous Y Combinator-backed startup called Superpowered. In May 2026, the company raised a $50 million Series B led by Peak XV Partners at approximately a $500 million valuation, bringing total funding to $72 million. The platform currently processes between 1 million and 5 million calls daily and routes 100% of inbound calls for customers like Amazon Ring.
