Founder story
Persistence AI was launched by founder and CEO Utkarsh Marwaha to address systemic inefficiencies inside large-scale enterprise customer care and inside sales teams. Recognizing that static chatbots and rigid IVR trees failed to properly retain inbound prospects, the leadership team engineered high-fidelity, autonomous voice entities. The startup accelerated its product roadmap rapidly, joining the Accel Atoms AI Cohort in early 2026 to bring native voice automation architectures to international BPOs.
