According to statistics from Deloitte, women in AI and computer science doctorate programs constitute only 25% of total students. Forbes reports that women account for approximately 25% of the tech workforce, and female founders secure just 22% of venture capital investments. These figures highlight the ongoing challenges women face in the tech sector. However, the emergence of pioneering women in AI offers a beacon of hope for a more inclusive and diverse future.
1 - Esranur Kaygin – CEO and Founder Hirize AI
Despite these barriers, a new wave of female AI founders is emerging. Pioneers like Mira Murati, former CTO of OpenAI, have set the stage for others to follow. Murati, known for her role in developing ChatGPT, broke into a male-dominated field and proved that gender is no barrier to success in AI. Her leadership changed perceptions, inspiring more women to enter the AI space.
One of these women is Esranur Kaygin founder of Hirize. Her company is transforming document intelligence with AI. With over a decade of experience, including seven years in venture capital. But rather than staying on the investor side, Esranur was drawn back to building and founded Hirize on the premise that AI’s potential can only be fully realized with precise and reliable data. “If your data isn’t clean, your AI won’t work,” Kaygin explains. Under her leadership, Hirize has become a standout in the competitive AI space by focusing on achieving research based 95% accuracy in document parsing.

Kaygin’s leadership and vision earned her company recognition, including acceptance into the Techstars accelerator, and the prestigious NVIDIA inception accelerator program.
The rise of women like Mira Murati and Esranur Kaygin signals a transformative shift in the tech industry. While underrepresentation remains a challenge, the success of female founders in AI suggests change is on the horizon. Women are no longer on the fringes of this revolution; they are leading it.

Kaygin hopes to serve as a role model for young girls and women aspiring to join the tech revolution. She emphasizes the importance of early engagement in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) projects, stating, “Participating in STEM activities and pursuing tech interests is crucial for young girls, who are statistically underrepresented in these fields. By nurturing their passion for technology from an early age, we can empower girls to become future leaders in tech,” she says.
As more women enter AI, the industry benefits from fresh perspectives and inclusive technology. Female founders like Esranur Kaygin are proving that diversity in leadership leads to better problem-solving. With role models like Murati and founders like Esranur, this is just the beginning of a new era in tech.
