Akshat Chhapolia — Co-Founder
I'm Akshat, a product-first founder building Pagaar.ai — an AI-powered hiring automation platform designed for India's high-velocity recruitment teams. After working across product roles at INDmoney and Fi, I experienced firsthand how broken hiring workflows are — scattered across spreadsheets, WhatsApp chats, and manual resume screening. At Pagaar, we're replacing that chaos with AI agents that streamline screening, calling, and coordination — all in one place. I’m passionate about building for scale, simplifying workflows, and using AI where it truly makes a difference. If you're a recruiter, startup founder, or HR leader struggling with hiring bottlenecks — I'd love to learn from you. Let’s connect.
