About
Bakhtawer is a two-time founder and NYU-backed entrepreneur building Clairdoc, recently named a Top 10 NYC startup by The Ventures during a16z Tech Week. Her path into AI ran through both ends of the industry: product work at TikTok, where scale is the default condition, and consulting at Deloitte, where rigor is. She trained formally in AI and data science at NYU, and that combination shapes how she builds now, treating intelligent systems less as novelty and more as infrastructure that has to earn its trust. At Clairdoc, she is turning that conviction into a company.
