Key people at Mauka.
Mauka was founded in 2014 by Jeff Newman (Co-Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer).
Mauka provides an AI-enabled Soft Skills as a Service (SSaaS) platform for young professionals in India. The core offering utilizes a practice-first approach with AI-powered mock interview simulators, delivering instant, granular feedback on competencies like subject knowledge, body language, and confidence. Its technical solution prioritizes personalized learning through AI-driven insights, integrating India-specific content.
Sagar Menon, Harsh Vora, and Shrey Karani co-founded Mauka in 2021. The company emerged from a collective belief that young Indians required better opportunities and essential soft skills for professional success. This insight prompted Menon, directly out of college, to establish the venture, addressing critical employability gaps.
The platform serves young professionals, colleges, and training institutes across India. Mauka’s mission is to build confidence and enhance employability outcomes for the nation's youth, equipping individuals with crucial skills for successful and impactful careers.
