Stage: Seed
Slide 1: Title
Content:
RagaAI
"Comprehensive Testing Platform to Prevent AI Failures"
"Powered by RagaAI Foundation Model"
Design framing:
The cover slide uses a dark blue tech-themed background with circuit board visuals shaped like a brain, signaling innovation and intelligence.
The white bold text contrasts well with the deep gradient background, ensuring clarity.
The logo placement (bottom left) and centered tagline balance corporate polish with a tech-forward feel.
Slide 2: Team
Content:
"Team to build the next big business in AI"
Team photo of 4 members
Profiles:
Gaurav Agarwal – Founder & CEO | Experience: VP/SW+ Product, Ola Lead ADAS AI, NVIDIA | Education: IIT-K, UMD, UT
Yaj Patel – Engineering Lead | Experience: Tech Lead Sumologic, VP Eng Zomato, Pocket Pills | Education: IIT-D
Rehan Asif – Data Science Lead | Experience: Cofounder OneLearn, DS AGM Renew Power | Education: IIT-G
Jigar Gupta – Product Lead | Experience: Senior DS Goldman Sachs, Strategy Zoox | Education: IIT-D, HBS
Design framing:
Layout splits between a large casual group team photo and structured bios.
Consistent blue highlight boxes distinguish "Experience" vs. "Education."
Clear hierarchy: names bolded, roles secondary, logos for companies add credibility visually.
Slide 3: Market Growth
Content:
Header: "AI is eating the world"
Chart: Market size comparison 2022 vs. 2032 (blue = AI market, red = GenerativeAI).
CAGR: 42%
Applications shown visually: ChatGPT, Virtual Assistant, Sentiment Analysis, Search, Q&A, Translation.
Design framing:
Bar graph emphasizes exponential growth visually, positioned centrally.
Icons/images of use cases add accessibility and broaden the message beyond just numbers.
"AI is eating the world" bold header is aggressive, market-seizing language.
Slide 4: Problem
Content:
Header: "But AI keeps failing"
Subheader: "Hard AI truth – The real world is infinitely complex and dynamic"
Three examples:
ADAS: one failure every 8 miles (AAA research).
LLMs: ChatGPT makes mistakes ~3% of the time.
Google Search/Recommendation: $100B+ lost in company valuation due to wrong AI answer.
Footer: "Deploying AI with confidence is hard. It is even harder to ensure consistent AI performance post deployment."
Design framing:
Uses stark accident/incident imagery (car crash, screenshots, logos) to make risks tangible.
The dark header bar reinforces urgency.
Bottom bar callout emphasizes the takeaway: deployment risk.
Slide 5: Vision
Content:
Header: "Vision: The RagaAI Testing Platform"
Workflow graphic showing:
1. Data Collection & Curation
2. Model Training
3. Pre-Deployment QA
4. AI Application Deployment
5. Post Deployment QA
Design framing:
Classic flow diagram with arrows visually simplifying complex lifecycle.
Central placement of "RagaAI Testing Platform" suggests it is the linchpin in the loop.
Soft colors and icons keep the message accessible to technical + business audiences.
Slide 6: Foundation Model
Content:
Header: "RagaAI DNA: Foundation Model"
Diagram: Central box = RagaAI DNA (foundational model)
Left: Embedding Generation – test data quality
Top: Explainability – insights for issues detected
Right: Synthetic Data Generation – synthetic data for use cases
Bottom: RagaAI DNA drives all tests
Design framing:
Clean hub-and-spoke structure emphasizes "foundation model" as central innovation.
Blue + black palette conveys reliability and science.
Text labels are short and action-oriented.
Slide 7: Value Proposition
Content:
Header: "Customer Value Proposition"
Stats:
50% cost reduction (AI failures + annotation processes)
90% decrease in model risk exposure
40% productivity increase in data science team
3X faster deployment of AI models
Design framing:
Minimalist slide — white space makes the metrics stand out.
Icons visually cue each percentage (money bag, warning sign, analytics, rocket).
Blue headers unify them.
Slide 8: Competitive Differentiation
Content:
Header: "Comprehensiveness is a clear differentiator"
Visual: Competitor matrix, with RagaAI top right (high comprehensiveness, all data modalities).
Peers shown: Fiddler, Arize, Robust Intelligence, Seldon, DeepChecks, Great Expectations, Aquarium.
Model Development / Data Labelling: SageMaker, W&B, Labelbox, Appen, Databricks, Scale.
Design framing:
Positioning chart places RagaAI clearly ahead, giving instant visual advantage.
Left-hand list of ecosystem logos adds credibility but contrasts with matrix.
Strong framing of "comprehensiveness" as unique advantage.
Slide 9: Market Opportunity
Content:
Header: "Huge Opportunity: Large Scale Deployments"
[$5B] SAM (2027)
Clear path to $100M revenue in 4 years.
Examples:
