THE PROFESSIONAL JOURNEY

How the story unfolds.

Leaving Apple to build with his father

In a March 2026 first-person interview, Akshat Prakash described leaving an AI and machine-learning role at Apple to start CAMB.AI with his father. He connected the decision to the challenge of making content work across languages. His account offers the personal background to the company’s focus on speech and translation, rather than an independent assessment of its technology.[2]

An early venture before speech translation

Carnegie Mellon’s 2026 alumni profile identifies Akshat Prakash as a 2019 School of Computer Science alumnus. Alongside his later work on Apple’s Siri technology, it describes an earlier entrepreneurial effort to identify teenage computing talent, supported through work with Techstars and Alchemist. This provides another chapter in his development as a founder before building CAMB.AI’s speech and translation technology.[3]
