In the fast-moving world of artificial intelligence, one challenge continues to slow down innovation — integration. Every AI system, no matter how intelligent, still struggles to seamlessly connect with the hundreds of tools, apps, and APIs businesses rely on every day.
That’s the problem Composio set out to solve.
Founded in 2023 by Soham Ganatra and Karan Vaidya, Composio is an AI integration infrastructure startup on a mission to make AI agents truly autonomous — capable of interacting with the digital world around them without endless human setup. In essence, Composio acts as the “universal connector” that allows AI to perform real-world, multi-step actions across platforms with the same ease as humans.
The Founders: From Physics to AI Infrastructure
Long before they were building cutting-edge AI infrastructure, Soham and Karan were two curious teenagers competing in physics Olympiads back in 2013. Fate made them IIT Bombay roommates, where shared curiosity turned into deep collaboration.
Soham went on to lead engineering teams specializing in complex API integrations, while Karan gained product experience at Nirvana Insurance and ByteLearn, understanding firsthand how fragmented enterprise systems often hold back innovation.
Their shared frustration with integration bottlenecks—and a vision to make AI systems more useful and accessible—sparked the idea for Composio.
The Spark: Where AI Meets Connectivity
While working with enterprise developers, the duo noticed a universal pain point:
“Developers spend more time connecting tools than building the actual intelligence,” says Soham.
That realization became the foundation for Composio’s mission — to eliminate the repetitive, technical grunt work of integration and replace it with a single communication layer for AI agents.
In simpler terms, Composio gives AI the “hands and voice” it needs to talk to the digital world — executing tasks, fetching data, updating systems, and learning from every interaction.
The Platform: A Bridge Between AI and Everything Else
Composio’s low-code, developer-first platform connects AI agents to over 90 tools, including GitHub, Salesforce, Notion, Slack, and custom APIs, through minimal setup and a single line of code.
It handles everything — authentication, triggers, data flows, and context management — allowing developers to focus on what their AI should achieve, not how to wire it all together.
What makes it stand out is its support for autonomous multi-step workflows: imagine an AI agent that not only writes code but pushes it to GitHub, creates a Jira ticket, and sends a Slack update — all without supervision.
Adoption and Growth
Since launch, Composio’s adoption has exploded across the AI and developer community. Over 14,500 developers and enterprise teams from companies like Meta, Salesforce, and Cisco now use its framework to accelerate AI integration projects.
In 2025, Composio raised $25 million in Series A funding led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, with participation from industry icons like Guillermo Rauch (Vercel) and Gokul Rajaram.
This funding validated what the founders always believed: that Composio could become for AI agents what Twilio was for communication APIs — the unseen infrastructure layer powering an entire generation of intelligent applications.
The Vision Ahead
Soham and Karan’s roadmap goes far beyond integration. They’re building the foundation for agentic AI — systems that not only act but think, adapt, and evolve.
They imagine a world where AI agents can learn from experience, create their own tools, and navigate enterprise systems with human-like intuition.
In Karan’s words,
“We’re building the nervous system for AI — something that connects intelligence to action.”
Conclusion: India’s AI Infrastructure Revolution
Composio represents the new face of India’s AI startup scene — technically bold, globally ambitious, and deeply practical in its mission.
By simplifying the hardest part of AI deployment — connecting intelligence with execution — Composio isn’t just enabling better agents; it’s laying the groundwork for a new kind of digital autonomy.
As AI grows more capable, it will need an infrastructure that keeps up.
Composio is building exactly that — the connective tissue of the next AI revolution.
