Founder story
Founded in 2020 by Aniket Bajpai and Nikhil Gupta in Bengaluru. Both founders have extensive AI backgrounds from MIT and CMU. They noticed that while consumers were moving to chat, business-to-consumer communication was still stuck in slow emails and clunky bots. They built LimeChat to bring 'in-store' interaction quality to the digital world.
