About Ritesh Arora
Ritesh Arora, co-founder and CEO of BrowserStack, delivered the opening keynote at StackConnect 2025 in London on June 1, 2025. He discussed the company's evolution from a browser testing tool into an "AI-first developer platform." Arora stated that BrowserStack launched eight products in the previous 12 months, compared to five products in its first 10 years, and that the engineering team had grown fivefold. He said the company has 50,000 customers across 130 countries and claimed it is "bigger than the next four testing companies put together." Arora also announced the acquisition of a company called Request, with plans to enter API testing and development. During a Q&A session, Arora addressed questions about AI hallucination and data protection. He said BrowserStack does not develop its own language models but uses models from Anthropic, Gemini, and OpenAI, applying "AI engineering" to build agents with "almost zero hallucination." He noted that the company is working on allowing customers to use their own internally hosted language models for stricter data policies. Arora also predicted that within five years, there may be no need for open-source automation platforms like Playwright or Selenium, stating that "it is only with AI that we believe it's now real and you can use local automation tools to do automation at scale."
