Kluisz.ai raises $9.6 Mn in seed round led by RTP Global Enterprise AI infra startup Kluisz.ai has raised $9.6 million in a seed round led by RTP Global, making it one of the largest seed fundraises for an AI-focused deeptech company out of India in 2025 so far. The round also saw participation from Unicorn India Ventures, Blume Founders Fund, Climber Capital, and several strategic angels, including Oyo’s Ritesh Agarwal, Innov8’s Ritesh Malik, Aditya Virwani of Embassy Group, and others. Founded earlier this year by former Oyo COO and CPO Abhinav Sinha, ex-McKinsey partner Vamshidhar Reddy, and former Jio cloud executive Abhijeet Singh, Kluisz.ai is building a developer-first AI-native private cloud platform for enterprise use cases. The product aims to orchestrate AI workloads across hybrid, on-premise, edge, and sovereign cloud environments, with embedded security, observability, and automation. Kluisz.ai allows developers to define performance, compliance, or cost objectives while the platform auto-manages deployment and execution across infrastructure stacks. According to the company, the fresh proceeds will be used to scale the core engineering team in Bengaluru, accelerate product development, and onboard early design partners.
