Mumbai | July 3, 2025 — In a major boost for India’s deep-tech startup ecosystem, GobbleCube, an AI-powered growth copilot for consumer brands, has raised $3.5 million in a pre-Series A funding round. The round was led by InfoEdge Ventures, with continued backing from early investor Kae Capital.
The fresh capital will power the company’s next phase of growth as it looks to enhance its AI capabilities, broaden its platform offerings, and fast-track its international go-to-market efforts.
What makes this raise especially remarkable is the pace at which GobbleCube has scaled. Launched just nine months ago, the company has swiftly grown from pre-revenue to $2 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR). Along the way, it has earned the trust of over 200 top-tier consumer brands including Reckitt, Tata Consumer, Nivea, and Johnson & Johnson.
Founded by Manas Gupta, Srikumar Nair, and Nitesh Jindal, GobbleCube is transforming the way consumer brands identify and act on growth opportunities. The platform sifts through billions of hyperlocal data points to surface revenue leaks, demand gaps, and untapped micro-market opportunities — enabling brands to achieve 2–3x growth within months.
“We’re building a category-defining product that brings intelligence and precision to brand growth strategies,” said co-founder Manas Gupta. “This round validates our vision and equips us to double down on global expansion.”
The startup is already making inroads across MENA and LATAM, regions that are increasingly embracing digital-first commerce strategies. With this momentum, GobbleCube is gearing up to take on global incumbents like CommerceIQ, Profitero, and NielsenIQ in the retail intelligence and commerce analytics space.
As AI reshapes the future of commerce, GobbleCube is positioning itself as the co-pilot consumer brands need to thrive in the hyper-competitive, data-driven landscape.
