Rishabh Chanana is the Co-Founder of Observee (OS3), a Y Combinator-backed AI robotics startup building Vision-Language Models and Vision-Language-Action models for real-time video inference and autonomous action-taking.

Rishabh holds a Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science from Vellore Institute of Technology and previously worked as an ML engineer and roboticist at UC San Diego, developing expertise in machine learning and physical AI systems.

A Forbes Business Council member and published contributor on AI and robotics, Rishabh has developed an ML-based mobile notification system and holds a patent for that work, reflecting his deep technical roots in applied machine learning.

At Observee, Rishabh leads the development of VLA models that feed real-world camera and sensor observations, combined with natural language task descriptions, into models that output precise motor commands, enabling robots to adapt to any environment.

Observee's platform connects to 1000+ tools via its open-source mcp-agents SDK, empowering developers to build AI agents at scale, and was selected for Y Combinator's S25 batch, validating its potential to redefine the future of intelligent robotics.
