AWS for AI Agents

Truffle AI makes it easy for developers to integrate AI agents into any software application. We do this by exposing agents as simple APIs that can be called from anywhere. Developers have used Truffle to add customer support agents into WhatsApp and analytics agents into Slack.

Hey YC!

We’re Shaunak and Rahul and we are making it easy for developers to integrate AI Agents into any software application. We do this by making agents available as simple APIs that can be called from anywhere. Developers have used Truffle to add customer support agents into WhatsApp and integrate analytics agents into Slack. Check out our demo below 👇

The Problem

While AI models have become more accessible, getting AI agents to production remains painfully complex. Developers don’t just need a model—they need to handle:

  • Managing state, memory, and vector databases
  • Manually integrating external tools and APIs
  • Customizing agents for specific business logic
  • Setting up and maintaining deployment infrastructure

Despite existing frameworks, developers still spend 60% of their time on "glue code" instead of building actual AI solutions. Companies burn $100K–$200K per year on DevOps overhead, just to manage AI agent infrastructure. AI should be easier to integrate than this.

The Solution

Truffle AI eliminates infrastructure headaches by turning AI agents into plug-and-play APIs:

  • No infrastructure setup - Our managed service handles the heavy lifting, eliminating deployment and scaling concerns
  • Seamless integration - Add AI agents to any application with just a few lines of code
  • Full customization - Build agents tailored to your specific business challenges
  • Reusability - Deploy the same agents across multiple applications

Most AI adoption today is being held back by engineering complexity—Truffle AI removes that bottleneck, making AI agents as simple to integrate as calling an API.

Our Story

As developers, we both hit the same frustrating wall: spending countless hours writing "glue code" for infrastructure instead of building innovative AI solutions.

While exploring several frameworks to build AI agents, we discovered a critical gap - none addressed the massive infrastructure overhead required for production-ready AI systems.

With Rahul's expertise in large-scale deployment and cluster management at AWS and Shaunak's background in AI research and product development, we realized we were uniquely positioned to solve this problem.

Our mission became clear: make powerful AI accessible to businesses of all sizes by eliminating the infrastructure barriers that slow innovation.
