Certus Founding Files

Learn about us:

We, Gurveer (CEO), Adam (CRO), and Isaac (CTO) are the Founders of Certus AI. 

A Y Combinator backed company (YC S25) building the AI Phone Manager for Restaurants, taking orders, reservations and general enquiries. We have been working on Certus for more than a year, working 16 hour days and 7 days a week from a small apartment in Cape Town.

Gurveer and Adam got the idea form their last company helping restaurants grow catering and events, where we saw firsthand how difficult restauranteurs found it to manager their phone calls.

Gurveer brings 9 years in his family’s 11 restaurants. Isaac joined us with 3 previous startups under his belt while building a staff management system for restaurants.

We started this when no one believed in what we were capable of. And will continue to grow and impact thousands of restaurants with that same tenacity and self-belief, with the backing of Sillicon Valley.
