Viven today emerged from stealth with $35 million in seed funding from Khosla Ventures, Foundation Capital, FPV Ventures, Operator Collective, and leading angel investors. The startup aims to transform enterprise operations with AI-powered Digital Twins, creating personalized digital counterparts for employees that capture knowledge, context, and decision-making patterns.
A New Operating Model for AI-Driven Enterprises
AI is no longer just a tool; it’s a competitive imperative. Viven’s Digital Twins go beyond traditional avatars or assistants by learning from a user’s real work, including internal documents, emails, meetings, and chat threads. They brief employees before meetings, distill cross-channel conversations, and answer colleagues’ questions when individuals are unavailable.
Enterprises can also deploy team-level Digital Twins, enabling executives to query the collective knowledge of departments, account teams, or project groups in real time. This makes organizational knowledge instantly accessible, breaking down silos and accelerating decision-making.
“Digital Twins give executives immediate access to the thinking, context, and decisions of their entire organization so they can move faster, see across silos, and stay ahead of the curve,” said Ashutosh Garg, co-founder and CEO of Viven.
Proven in Global Enterprises
Viven is already deployed in companies like Genpact, the Josh Bersin Company, Red Crackle, and Eightfold, delivering measurable improvements in collaboration and continuity. Genpact, for instance, rolled out Digital Twins across its global leadership in just eight weeks, enhancing organizational velocity and decision-making.
“Speed and agility are fundamental elements of our culture, making us natural partners for innovations like Viven’s Digital Twins,” said Balkrishan ‘BK’ Kalra, President and CEO of Genpact.
Enterprise-Grade Security and Compliance
Designed with enterprise security in mind, Viven supports deployments in private clouds or on-premises environments. Its privacy framework includes pairwise privacy, granular role-based access controls (RBAC), and full audit trails, ensuring Digital Twins share only what users are authorized to access. Compliance and trust are built into the system from the ground up.
Backed by Experienced Founders
Viven is led by Ashutosh Garg and Varun Kacholia, serial entrepreneurs who previously founded two unicorns, including Eightfold AI. The leadership team brings a proven track record of scaling category-defining enterprise AI solutions.
“Time is the scarcest resource in any company,” said Vinod Khosla, founder of Khosla Ventures. “By creating a digital twin for every employee, Viven helps organizations move faster, accelerate decision-making, and preserve institutional knowledge.”
With this launch, Viven positions itself at the forefront of AI-driven enterprise productivity, delivering a new class of intelligent systems designed to make organizational knowledge permanent, actionable, and instantly accessible.
