Azara builds autonomous AI agents for enterprise workflow automation. Founded in 2023 in Singapore by Jason Sosa, former IBM engineer Steve Messina, and former chief investment officer Shahid Chishty, the company rebranded from its original name, Blackbox AI, as it moved from a broader agent platform toward a finance-and-operations focus.
Azara agents connect to a company's existing apps and private data, then carry out multi-step tasks such as customer onboarding, document handling, and sales-operations support in response to plain-language instructions, without custom code for each workflow. The company builds its pitch around no-code agent configuration rather than a single prompt-and-response chat window.
Azara targets mid-market and enterprise finance and operations teams that want to delegate repetitive multi-step processes to an AI workforce instead of stitching together individual point automations. Pricing is not published; the company runs an enterprise demo and custom-quote process, and it has raised roughly $1 million from investors including Iterative and Dave McClure.
