The year that went by, bringing many firsts and skyrocketing highs for this rocketship... 2025 was incredibly thrilling for us at @bolna_dev.

Logged into @make_hq and within 5 minutes, 0 OTPs / Credit Card entries etc., I had made a custom workflow (webhook to create google calendar meeting), added it to an agent created on @bolna_dev and tested it succesfully.
Brilliant onboarding experience!
Super excited to announce that using Bolna, you can now build agents (within 5 minutes) that reply with <1 sec latency and have lightning fast interruption handling capabilities!
We launch soon! Stay tuned :)

YC basically stopped accepting Indian founders.
The numbers are brutal:
2021: 66 accepted
2023: 12 accepted
2025: 1 accepted
That's a 98% drop.
The reason? U.S. visa rejections.
@gigaai founders beat Claude on LLM benchmarks - then got rejected for U.S. visas. Twice.
