Seeing the technological advancements in the U.S., the founders developed an AI-based framework aimed at automating these processes. The company's inception occurred during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, which posed challenges such as gaining credibility, technology development without a dedicated office, and penetrating the B2B market, which required extensive validation of their product capabilities. Despite these hurdles, by mid-2021, TraqCheck was operational with substantial client interest, securing key contracts with firms like Bajaj Capital.
