Shiv Sakhuja

Shiv Sakhuja is the co-founder of Athina AI (YC W23), a leader in the LLM evaluation and monitoring space. He recognized early that the hurdle to putting AI in production was reliability, leading him to build "unit tests for LLMs." Based in San Francisco, his platform helps engineering teams at mid-market and enterprise companies detect hallucinations and maintain safety standards. He is a frequent speaker at AI conferences in the Bay Area and is backed by Y Combinator and 10x Founders.

Athina AI is an observability platform used to track LLM performance in production. It offers automated evaluators that detect hallucinations and security risks, allowing teams to ship AI features with confidence. Backed by Y Combinator (W23), it is currently used by hundreds of developer teams globally.
