# Adit Jain

> Adit Jain is the co-founder and CEO of Leena AI, an enterprise agentic AI company he built out of an IIT Delhi hostel room. After a chatbot platform called ChatterOn quietly attracted 30,000 businesses but almost no revenue, he noticed a handful of big customers were using it for internal HR and IT questions. He killed the broad product and rebuilt around that single use case. Leena AI now serves 400+ enterprises across 90+ countries, including Coca-Cola, Nestle, Puma, Sony and Etihad, and Jain has raised more than $40 million from investors like Bessemer and B Capital. He was named to the Forbes 30 Under 30 list in 2020.
