Snippets Googleโ€™s AI Futures Fund backs Mukund Jhaโ€™s Emergent AI-led software creation startup Emergent has raised a strategic investment from Google AI Futures Fund. The funding is part of Googleโ€™s AI Futures Fund, launched in May 2025 to support early-stage AI companies with capital. The development comes soon after Emergentโ€™s $23 million in Series A funding led by Lightspeed, with participation from Together Fund and others. The new funding will be used to speed up hiring, product development, and global expansion, Emergent said in a press release. It also plans to use Googleโ€™s AI infrastructure and models to improve agent performance, product reliability, and platform scale as demand grows across global markets. Emergent said that it is expanding its presence among freelancers, startups, and side-hustle founders who need fast software deployment without engineering teams. Founded in 2025 by Mukund Jha (former co-founder of Dunzo) and his brother Madhav Jha, Emergent allows users to convert ideas into production-grade applications using autonomous AI agents, removing the need for developers or technical co-founders. The platform targets entrepreneurs, small businesses, creators, and solo founders who want to build software without coding skills. The startup claims it has crossed 2.5 million users globally within five months of launch and has surpassed a $25 million annual recurring revenue (ARR) run rate.
