Coval evaluates AI voice and chat agents like self-driving cars


Former tech lead at Waymo, Brooke Hopkins, built Coval to bring the same approach to evaluation self-driving cars to AI agents.

Users can also take this data, and the insights they gleam off of it, and bring it to their end-customers either for a demo or as a monitoring tool to show their customers the agent is working as intended. The San Francisco-based startup is now announcing a $3.3 million seed round led by MaC Venture Capital with participation from Y Combinator and General Catalyst. Enterprise tech leaders like Marc Benioff have been praising (and marketing) the technology by saying Salesforce will deploy more than a billion of its AI agents by next year.
