Scoutflo, an AI-powered DevOps startup, has raised Rs 1.4 crore in a pre-seed funding round led by 100X.VC and angel investors Arjun Pillai and Prasanna Venkatesan (ex-CTO, ZoomInfo India). The proceeds will be used to enhance its AI features, improve deployment automation, strengthen security, and expand into new markets. It also aims to form partnerships that will help grow its user base and add more useful integrations. Founded in 2024, Scoutflo helps developers deploy code and manage cloud infrastructure without relying heavily on DevOps teams. The platform uses artificial intelligence to automate deployment, fix issues, and ensure strong security and compliance. It supports multiple cloud services like AWS, GCP, Azure, and Civo, helping teams avoid being tied to a single provider. In many companies, one DevOps engineer supports around 20 developers, which often leads to bottlenecks. Scoutflo solves this with easy-to-use tools that give developers more control and speed. The platform works across major cloud services like AWS, GCP, Azure, and Civo. It is already trusted by fintech and edtech companies. The firm is working to make software deployment simpler and more efficient for teams of all sizes.

Snippets Astrophel Aerospace raises Rs 6.84 Cr in pre-seed round Deep-tech space startup Astrophel Aerospace has raised Rs 6.84 crore (around $800K) in a pre-seed funding round from a group of angel investors and venture firms. The Pune-based startup will use the funds to build a prototype of its reusable semi-cryogenic launch vehicle and to expand in-house R&D efforts focused on building advanced missile-grade guidance and propulsion systems. Founded in 2022 by Suyash Bafna, Astrophel Aerospace is building cost-effective, reusable launch vehicles specifically tailored for small satellites. It operates on a vertically integrated model designing, engineering, and testing propulsion systems in-house. The firmโ€™s Astra C1 series rockets are powered by in-house developed semi-cryogenic engines and built using a combination of 3D printing and modular assembly. Astrophel claims to be among a limited number of Indian private companies to have successfully test-fired a semi-cryogenic engine, and achieved this with just Rs 6 lakh in internal resources and no external funding before this round. It is now aiming for a working, reusable prototype within the next 2โ€“3 years. The startup is building its flagship Potentia C1U engine using modular design and manufacturing principles adapted from the automotive sector. Astrophel has also signed an MoU with ISRO to support co-development and testing. In India, its key competitors include Skyroot Aerospace, Agnikul Cosmos, Bellatrix Aerospace and Pixxel among others.

Circle raises Rs 3.4 Cr in pre-seed round led by Titan Capital Circle has raised Rs 3.4 crore in a pre-seed round led by Titan Capital. Raveen Sastry, co-founder of Myntra, also participated. The proceeds will be used to strengthen Circleโ€™s AI stack, including guided pricing, automated condition grading, and catalog matching. Circle will focus on electronics and household categories, expand its presence in Bengaluru, and enter new cities by 2026. Founded in 2025 by Ankit Misra and Chirag Kataruka, Circle runs a full-stack model that uses AI to verify product listings, handles doorstep logistics, and manages secure payments. The goal is to remove uncertainty, scams, and coordination issues that commonly occur in C2C transactions. Sellers can list items quickly, get pricing support, and receive payouts once the product is picked up and verified. Since its soft launch in August 2025, Circle has onboarded more than 17,000 users in Bengaluru. The platform is seeing strong demand in electronics, furniture, appliances, and home goods. As per market research, Indiaโ€™s pre-owned goods market is valued at Rs 1.6 lakh crore, but the experience remains fragmented because of fake listings, incomplete product information, and lack of buyer and seller protection. More than 70 million Indians transact used goods every month, yet the overall experience is not at par with primary e-commerce platforms.
