“RC didn’t impose limits on what we could do.”
Şems Polat RC 24 and Mert Kaan Atan RC 25 joined forces to launch Luron.ai, which has already received a $1M pre-seed investment.
How did you two get together and found Luron.ai?
Our paths crossed when the RC Business Society, where Şems served as President, invited the Capital Management club, which Mert led, to an event. We quickly realized we shared the same ambition to build something impactful. That alignment led directly to the founding of Luron.ai.
What does Luron.ai do?
Luron.ai builds AI-powered voice agents that handle customer communication end-to-end. Beyond inbound, the platform enables automated outbound workflows for debt collection, bulk campaigns, and lead follow-ups across voice, SMS, chat, and email, optimizing operations that traditionally require large call centers.
How do you plan to develop your business after this investment?
Our focus is on rapid go-to-market execution and product refinement. We are actively serving multiple verticals, including consumer enterprises, automotive, and financial services. We continue improving conversation quality, integrations, and system reliability to scale globally.
How did RC influence your paths?
RC played a defining role in shaping our mindset. Mert was already a serial entrepreneur in high school, co-founding legal AI and language learning startups alongside the RC Startup Factory. Şems pursued national math olympiads and served as Student Council President. RC didn’t impose limits—it forced us to operate at a high level under pressure. That mindset became foundational in building Luron.ai.
