RapidClaims, a brand that helps hospitals and doctors get paid faster, has raised $11 million to grow its business. The funding includes $8 million in a new round led by Accel and $3 million from earlier investors like Together Fund and top names in healthcare.

Its tools help medical staff code procedures correctly, fix missing information, and catch errors before sending bills to insurance companies. This helps hospitals avoid claim denials and save money, cutting costs by up to 70%. The platform already works across 25 medical specialties and connects easily with over 15 hospital record systems.

Hospitality major Oyo has officially appointed Sumer Juneja as a non-executive director. The development comes a month after he joined the firm’s board as additional director, representing SoftBank. The board at Oyo has passed a resolution to appoint Juneja as a non-executive director, the firm’s regulatory filing sourced from the Registrar of Companies (RoC) shows. Juneja is managing director of EMEA & India at SoftBank’s investment advisors. He sits on multiple companies’ boards on behalf of SoftBank including Lenskart, Swiggy, Eruditus and Unacademy. Prior to SoftBank, Juneja was a partner at Norwest Venture and a member of Goldman Sachs Asia special situations group. The IPO-bound company recently closed its $175 million Series G round led by Patient Capital — an entity run by Oyo’s Ritesh Agarwal in Singapore — at a post-money valuation of $2.4 billion. Oyo’s valuation declined 70% from its peak valuation of $9.6 billion in August 2021, when the firm raised $5 million from Microsoft. The hospitality firm made a turnaround in business by churning profit of Rs 230 crore with an operating revenue of Rs 5,389 crore in FY24. For background, the firm bore a loss of Rs 1,286 crore in FY23. Recently, Oyo said that it will refile the IPO papers after concluding a large funding round. In May, it withdrew its draft papers (DRHP) for the second time in the wake of unfavorable conditions. For a better experience in the budget hotel segment, Oyo has been working to get more control on operations of its partners. As per sources, the Gurugram-based company is looking after the services such as laundry and room service. The company also got into luxury accommodation with the brand name ‘Sunday’ which currently operates in three cities —Jaipur, Chandigarh and Ahmedabad. Sunday Hotel is a joint venture between Oyo’ parent company and its largest backer SoftBank. Sunday Hotel plans to open 25 properties in India by the end of FY25.

Exclusive: Seekho set to raise $25 Mn, hits $4 Mn monthly revenue Established in 2020 by Rohit Choudhary, Keertay Agarwal, and Yash Banwani, Seekho is a platform that helps individuals build skills and knowledge through short-term courses. Learning-focused over the top (OTT) platform Seekho is raising another round to the tune of $25-30 million, sources aware of the development told Entrackr. The Bengaluru-based startup scooped up $8 million back in December 2024. “Bessemer is in late-stage talks to lead a $25–30 million round in Seekho OTT, with participation from existing investors such as Lightspeed and Elevation,” one of the sources said. “The investment discussions follow the company’s strong performance in user engagement and revenue growth.” Established in 2020 by Rohit Choudhary, Keertay Agarwal, and Yash Banwani, Seekho is a platform that helps individuals build skills and knowledge through short-term courses. It prepares users for careers in areas such as parenting, stock trading, Instagram growth, and education. The platform targets tier-II cities and beyond, delivering content through short, episodic videos lasting two to five minutes. So far, Seekho has raised $11 million across two rounds from Lightspeed, Elevation, PointOne Capital, Sprout Investment, AngelList, Succeed and several angel investors such as Gaurav Munjal, Anupam Mittal, Alok Mittal, Harsh Daga, Abhinav Daga, Hemant Goteti and Zishaan Hayath. “Seekho is currently generating an annual recurring revenue (ARR) of $45-50 million, with monthly revenues in the range of $4-4.5 million (Rs 35–40 crore),” said another source. The person added that the company is expected to be valued at around $120–130 million post-money. The person added that the company is expected to be valued at around $120–130 million post-money. To be sure, the terms and contours of the deal could change at the last moment. Queries sent to Seekho, Bessemer, Lightspeed and Elevation did not elicit response until publication of the story. For the fiscal year ending in March 2024, five-year-old Seekho registered Rs 11.5 crore in revenue with Rs 4.6 crore losses. Investor interest in Seekho is evident as the company continues to show swift growth with deep markets — tier II, III, and even tier I cities — still to tap. The platform’s short video format is resonating well with Gen Z audiences, who prefer engaging with videos over traditional reading materials. Seekho appears to have found a strong product-market fit with a large market to serve. Its growth also highlights the presence of white spaces in the edtech sector, which has otherwise been going through a difficult and boring phase.
