Ex-Rippling cofounder launches Vorflux 2.0 AutoBots in Slack, raises $15M seed from YC and Peak XV

Vorflux 2.0 introduces AutoBots: AI coworkers that live in Slack and take ownership of ongoing work — detecting and investigating production bugs, turning customer calls into fixes, managing projects, reviewing code and drafting social content — without waiting for per-task prompts. Each AutoBot can be assigned budgets, tools and approval limits. The company raised a $15M seed round backed by Y Combinator, Peak XV and Alliance DAO; founder prasanna previously co-founded Rippling ($10B+). He frames the evolution as IDE autocomplete > CLI > cloud agents > multiplayer Slack agents, and users can bring existing Codex/Claude Code subscriptions.
