Capabilities

Team & story

We’re a team of Y Combinator and Stanford AI Lab alumni that have been working on voice AI since 2024. Our CEO is Alex Kolchinski; our CTO is Alec Bell.

While building a call center AI system for a demanding enterprise client, we found that no existing phone AI platforms were good enough for their needs — especially accurate data entry. To solve their problems, we implemented a new system from scratch.

While doing so, we discovered ways to achieve high performance at low cost using an opinionated, integrated architecture blending commercial and open‑source models. After months of development, we’re now making our system publicly available as ThunderPhone.

We’re onboarding a few more customers this month for custom implementations — reach out if you’re interested. And stay tuned for our full public launch later this fall.
