Ryo Chikazawa
Ryo Chikazawa is the co-founder and CEO of Autify, an AI-powered software testing automation company based in San Francisco and Tokyo. A software engineer who worked in Japan, Singapore, and the US, he kept running into the same problem everywhere: testing software takes too long. After eight pivots and interviewing 70+ prospects, he built Autify into a no-code test automation platform used by companies like Unity, DeNA, and ZOZO, raising roughly $32M through Series B and launching Autify Genesis, an autonomous AI testing agent.
Pankaj Goel
Pankaj Goel is the co-founder and CEO of Opkey, a no-code, AI-driven test automation platform used by more than 250 enterprises to keep cloud ERP systems - Oracle, Workday, SAP, Salesforce, Coupa - from breaking on every quarterly update. He founded Opkey in 2016 after spending a decade running Crestech Software Systems, and before that worked on the automation teams behind Adobe InDesign and Illustrator. In August 2024 Opkey raised a $47M Series B led by PeakSpan Capital.
Fred Stevens-Smith
Fred Stevens-Smith is the British co-founder and CEO of Rainforest QA, a San Francisco-based no-code test automation platform that has run over 60 million software tests for more than 10,000 product teams. A Y Combinator W2012 alumnus who self-describes as 'pretty unemployable,' Fred pivoted from failed AWS analytics ideas to QA 30 days before Demo Day after cold-emailing his entire network and finding universal demand for better software testing. Backed by Bessemer Venture Partners, Jason Lemkin, Marc Benioff, and Garry Tan, Rainforest QA has raised $42.3M and now leads the market in AI-powered, self-healing test automation.
