DEEP DIVE

Every new AI feature needs a check for bias, toxicity, hallucinations, and edge-case bugs. YC-backed Cekura just raised $2.4M and charges $1000 per client each month to do exactly that. If you can break things methodically and write a clear report, you can sell the same service; solo, remote, and on retainer.

🚀 Why this matters

AI launches are outpacing QA teams. Deloitte expects one-quarter of GenAI adopters to deploy agent based testing this year.

• Ship fast; test faster. Startups push code before the coffee cools; sloppy AI outputs spark PR disasters.

• Money talks. A founder will happily pay $1000 to you instead of hiring a full-time QA engineer with stock options.

• Adoption curve is steep. Deloitte projects one-quarter of GenAI adopters will run agent based testing in 2025. (deloitte.com)

• You already have the core skills. Curiosity, clear writing, and nit-picking edge cases outperform fancy credentials.
