Former Infosys chief has a new startup that wants to challenge the IT services world

A former CEO of a major Indian IT services firm has launched a new startup that uses AI to help enterprises build and maintain software, rather than relying on traditional outsourced IT services work. The startup raised $32 million in seed funding and already has customers, positioning itself differently from traditional IT services firms that scale by hiring more people. This launch reflects an ongoing debate in the industry about whether AI will expand the market for enterprise software services or fundamentally disrupt how that work gets done, with traditional IT services firms themselves racing to adapt by partnering with AI companies.
