At an age when most teenagers are still navigating high school, Pranjali Awasthi, a 16-year-old tech prodigy, has taken the global tech world by storm. Founder and CEO of Dev.AI, Pranjali has built a groundbreaking artificial intelligence startup now valued at over ₹100 crore, placing her among the youngest tech entrepreneurs in the world.

Born and raised in India, Pranjali mastered coding at just 11, showing an early spark that would later blossom into full-fledged innovation. By the time she was 13, she had already begun working on AI models to tackle one of the world’s most pressing challenges: data overload. Her company, Dev.AI, now offers advanced AI tools that help organizations process, structure, and analyze vast amounts of data in real time—dramatically improving efficiency and decision-making across sectors.

Dev.AI’s AI-powered platforms are being used by enterprises, research institutions, and even public service organizations across North America, Europe, and Asia. Its proprietary algorithms reduce redundant data processing time by up to 85%, enabling smarter automation and better use of resources.

“Technology should serve clarity, not complexity,” says Pranjali. “At Dev.AI, we’re helping the world make sense of its information.”

Pranjali’s success has drawn international attention. She has been featured in Forbes Under 30 Watchlist, invited to speak at AI summits in Silicon Valley and Dubai, and is now seen as one of India’s youngest global tech ambassadors. Tech leaders have lauded her for not only her innovation but also her commitment to responsible AI.

From coding at 11 to building a ₹100 crore company by 16, Pranjali Awasthi is a symbol of India’s emerging youth-led innovation economy. As she continues to scale new heights, her story is not only one of personal brilliance but also a beacon for aspiring young minds across the country.
