Editorial note
Livspace, the KKR-backed home-interiors platform, cut roughly 1,000 roles — about 12% of staff — across design, sales, operations and marketing, with co-founder Saurabh Jain departing. We tag this Explicit because the company itself framed the move as becoming an "AI-native agentic organization," saying AI agents now handle tasks previously done manually. No US-specific job figure has been confirmed.
