About
Vorflux is a San Francisco–based AI startup building an “autopilot” for software engineering — a platform that uses specialized AI agents to plan, design, build, test, review, and execute software across the full development lifecycle rather than acting as a copilot to individual developers 123. The company was launched in 2026 by Prasanna Sankar, a co-founder of HR software firm Rippling, and operates with most engineering headcount based in Bengaluru, India 12. Vorflux’s platform is designed to be model-agnostic, selecting the most appropriate model for each task within a coding workflow 2. On 2026-07-16, Vorflux announced a $15 million seed round led by Y Combinator with participation from Peak XV Partners, Powerset, and Alliance, plus angel investors Parker Conrad (Rippling co-founder), Immad Akhund (Mercury founder/CEO), and Balaji Srinivasan (former Coinbase CTO) 123. Proceeds will fund hiring and expanded go-to-market efforts 12.
