How ExamRoom.AI Governs AI at Scale with TrueFoundry

A TrueFoundry case study on ExamRoom.AI, an AI-first assessment platform that runs 60+ distinct AI solutions across exams that can last up to 28 hours. After an object-detection model that passed local testing failed in production, ExamRoom.AI moved off hand-managed Kubernetes onto TrueFoundry's deployment platform and AI Gateway. Deployment dropped from six days to under two hours, the platform scaled from a handful of test users to 500,000 in production, and three ML Ops engineers were freed from cluster babysitting to build product.

Nikunj Bajaj

Nikunj Bajaj is the Co-Founder and CEO of TrueFoundry, a San Francisco-based enterprise AI infrastructure platform that lets companies build, deploy, and govern machine learning and generative AI applications on Kubernetes - in cloud, on-prem, or hybrid environments. An IIT Kharagpur and UC Berkeley alum, Bajaj previously led machine learning at Facebook where he helped launch the company's first on-device model on Messenger and built the Proactive Assistant. He founded TrueFoundry in 2021 alongside two IIT Kharagpur batchmates, raised $21.3M (including a $19M Series A led by Intel Capital in 2025), and counts Siemens Healthineers, NVIDIA, and Automation Anywhere among customers - compressing typical AI deployment timelines from 14 months to under four.
