Medial

Bengaluru-based Agrani Labs, an AI semiconductor startup, has come out of stealth and raised $8 million in a seed round led by Peak XV Partners with participation from angel investors. The proceeds will be used to scale engineering efforts and advance product development as Agrani Labs works towards building globally competitive AI compute solutions from India. Founded by Dheemanth Nagaraj, Ashok Jagannathan, Srikanth Nimmagadda, and Rajesh Vivekanandham, Agrani Labs is working on building a high-performance AI GPU designed for data centres. The startup is entering a market that is seeing rapid growth, driven by rising demand for AI compute infrastructure, but remains dominated by a few global players. Agrani Labs is building a full-stack AI compute platform, covering both hardware and software. Along with GPU design, the company is developing its own software stack, including compilers, libraries, system software, and AI frameworks. Agrani Labs has also onboarded Vinod Dham, widely known as the “Father of the Pentium,” as a founding advisor. Dham previously played a key role in Intel’s processor roadmap and is closely associated with India’s semiconductor ecosystem. The startup has already made progress on architecture and product definition and has built early versions of its hardware and software stack. Agrani Labs is also working with academic institutions, semiconductor partners, government research bodies, and software ecosystems to accelerate development.

CuePilot AI raises $1.8 Mn in pre-seed round led by Unilazer Ventures Early childhood education-focused startup CuePilot AI has raised $1.8 million in a pre-seed funding round led by Unilazer Ventures, backed by Ronnie Screwvala, with participation from Eximius Ventures and Titan Capital. The proceeds will be used to strengthen CuePilot’s voice and AI stack, build integrations for new geographies, and expand go-to-market efforts across India, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and later the US. Founded to address operational inefficiencies in preschools and daycare centres, CuePilot offers a voice-first, AI-native management platform that automates a large share of administrative tasks. The system allows teachers to record short voice debriefs, which are converted into structured academic updates, operational records, and parent-facing communication. The company says this helps educators reduce screen time and focus more on classroom engagement. CuePilot operates as a full-stack platform covering academics, attendance, health logs, billing, admissions, and parent communication. The startup is targeting a segment where data is often fragmented across messaging apps, spreadsheets, and legacy software. CuePilot currently works with over 130 schools across India and Southeast Asia. The firm plans to scale to 1,000 schools globally over the next 12–18 months, with a focus on expansion into the US, where average revenue per school is higher.
