AI Rudder is a Singapore-based voice AI company that automates high-volume customer phone calls and chats for banks, lenders, insurers, e-commerce and logistics firms. Its human-sounding voice agents handle payment reminders, verification, surveys, telemarketing and customer service across 15+ languages and regional accents, letting enterprises scale contact-center work without adding headcount. Backed by Sequoia, Tiger Global and Coatue, it serves 500+ enterprise clients concentrated in Southeast Asia and Latin America.
Liberate is a San Francisco-based startup building insurance-native AI agents that automate the industry's most operational, phone-heavy work - quoting policies, filing claims, servicing endorsements - across voice, email, SMS, and digital channels. Its voice assistant, Nicole, handles inbound and outbound calls, while reasoning AI agents plug directly into carriers' core systems to complete end-to-end tasks rather than just answer questions. In October 2025 the company raised a $50M Series B led by Battery Ventures at a $300M valuation, after scaling from 10,000 monthly automations to 1.3 million automated resolutions and processing more than $100B in premium volume.
