Theia Ventures Leads $1M Pre-Seed Round to Build EarthSync’s “AI Digital Backbone” for Renewables

EarthSync Technologies, an AI-native platform designed to overhaul renewable energy planning and procurement, has raised $1 million (approx. ₹8.3 crore) in a pre-seed funding round. The investment was led by Theia Ventures, a specialist early-stage fund focused on decarbonization, with participation from Eximius Ventures, India’s first dedicated pre-seed fund.

This capital infusion marks the fifth investment from Theia Ventures’ new fund, which reached its first close in October 2025 with British International Investment (BII) as the anchor investor. The fresh funds will accelerate EarthSync’s AI modeling engine and expand its project marketplace to power the next wave of global clean energy deployments.

Solving the “Analytical Debt” in Green Energy

Founded in 2024 by Rajat Singh (CEO) and Mehul Kumar (CTO), EarthSync is tackling the “analytical debt” plaguing India’s transition to green power. While Commercial and Industrial (C&I) enterprises are eager to switch to renewables, they are often paralyzed by shifting state policies, complex grid tariffs, and fragmented data.

EarthSync replaces slow, spreadsheet-based models with a unified intelligence platform. By integrating regulatory data with real-time physics-informed machine learning, the platform allows stakeholders to simulate, optimize, and procure energy assets with surgical precision.

Core Platform Capabilities:

Simulate: Already processed 10 GW of solar/wind and 4 GWh of Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) simulations.
Optimize: Finds the ideal mix of generation and storage to maximize IRR while meeting sustainability goals.
Procure: Shortens sales cycles from months to weeks by hosting Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and consumers on a single, transparent marketplace.

Accelerating the Energy Transition

EarthSync’s mission is particularly critical as India shifts from simple net-metering to complex Round-the-Clock (RTC) and sub-hourly balancing energy markets.

“We are building the digital energy backbone that converts policy and climate complexity into executable intelligence,” said Co-founders Rajat Singh and Mehul Kumar. “Our platform is already working across sectors like data centers, auto manufacturing, and textiles to simplify their decarbonization journeys.”

Priya Shah, Founder & GP of Theia Ventures, noted that EarthSync is well-positioned to disrupt legacy software models. “The company is delivering an agile, customizable engine that provides the ‘single source of truth’ every stakeholder around the table can finally rely on.”

Investor & Sector Context

The round highlights the growing momentum in India’s climate-tech ecosystem. Eximius Ventures, known for backing category-defying startups from day zero, joins a growing list of institutional investors betting on “DeepTech for Decarbonization.”

Theia Ventures’ New Fund Portfolio (2025-26):

Sarla Aviation: Electric air-taxis.
Climitra Carbon: Biocoal for heavy industry.
Lemnisca Bio: AI-powered biomanufacturing.
Novyte Materials: AI materials discovery.
EarthSync Technologies: AI-driven energy intelligence.
