# Yellow.ai

> Yellow.ai, an enterprise agentic-AI company founded in Bangalore in 2016 and now headquartered in San Mateo, is going public through a SPAC merger with Bluerock Acquisition Corp at roughly a $550 million valuation. Instead of only licensing software, CEO Raghu Ravinutala plans to use the proceeds to acquire business process outsourcing firms and rebuild their human call-center operations on Yellow.ai's AI. It is an unusual bet - buy the labor budget, not just sell the tool - in a market where well-funded rivals like Talkdesk have chased the same customer-experience dollars.
