Angoor AI, an AI-native customer
interaction platform, has raised Rs 2 crore in a pre-seed funding round led by
Venturizer and prominent angel investors, including Uday Sodhi, (ex-Business
Head, SonyLIV, and Co-Founder of Founders Room Capital), Tarun Billa (Tech Lead
at JP Morgan, Singapore), and Mayank Singh Tomar. The Bengaluru-based startup
was founded in Oct 2023 by three IIT Bombay graduates Arpit Agrawal, (CEO),
Anuj Agrawal, (CTO), and Rishabh Kumar, (CPO).
“Today's B2C businesses are
present everywhere, WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, Email, Website, App, and
Voice- but operating nowhere cohesively. Customers expect a seamless
experience; what they get is a disconnected one. Behind the scenes, teams are
juggling fragmented tools, losing context, and burning resources just to keep
up. That's not a communication problem. That's the business problem we are
solving,” said Arpit Agrawal, (Co-Founder & CEO), Angoor AI.
According to Agrawal, Angoor AI
builds a unified contextual layer that sits over a brand's existing stack of
CRM, support, marketing, and sales tools, creating a singular omnipresent view
of the customer that carries forward across every interaction, channel, and
stage of the customer life cycle.
The startup claims to have
onboarded more than 20 B2C and D2C brands across India and the UK, including
Sanfe, InstaAstro, Apps For Bharat, 3ioNetra, Rupyz, StudentTenant, and
FitProperty. It is now looking at the US market as part of its expansion plans.
With the fresh capital infusion,
the founders plan to build out an enterprise sales team, expand the product and
engineering function as well as lay the infrastructure for a product-led growth
motion.
“Having worked very closely with
Angoor AI over the last nine months and seen the growth this team has
demonstrated is a direct signal of what they can achieve with the right
backing. The need for a unified, AI-native platform has never been higher. We evaluated
multiple startups globally; Angoor AI stood out on both integration simplicity,
technical depth, and founding team capability,” said Ashish Mishra, Co-Founder,
Venturizer.
