Ubiqedge, a full-stack AIoT startup specializing in industrial infrastructure, has raised Rs 10 crore in a seed funding round led by Piper Serica. The round also saw participation from notable angel investors, including Shibam Das (CEO and co-founder of Atomberg) and Sumit Chhazed.
The fresh capital is earmarked for the enhancement of the company’s AI capabilities and the scaling of its deployments across multiple sectors, including water management, air quality, solar energy, and construction. Additionally, Ubiqedge plans to use the funds to broaden its network of system integrators and Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) partners.
Bridging the Gap in Industrial Efficiency
Founded in March 2024 by Visat Patel, Archit Khandelwal, Akhilesh Thorat, and Hetvi Shah, Ubiqedge positions itself as an “operating system” for industrial infrastructure. The startup addresses long-standing challenges in the sector, such as fragmented legacy systems, reliance on manual monitoring, and delayed decision-making.
The company’s technology stack consists of two primary components:
KLEON: A proprietary hardware platform designed for rugged industrial environments.
SAMASTH: An AI-powered software layer that processes real-time data to provide automated controls and actionable insights.
By integrating hardware and software, Ubiqedge enables enterprises to transition from reactive maintenance to real-time optimization, ensuring both operational efficiency and regulatory compliance.
Proven Impact and Market Competition
Despite its relatively recent entry into the market, Ubiqedge has already reported significant traction. The company claims to have digitized over 23,000 borewells to date, achieving a reduction in issue resolution timelines by more than 80%.
As Ubiqedge expands its footprint in the AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) space, it enters a competitive landscape that includes established global and domestic players such as Samsara, Teltonika, Kristnam, and Datoms.
With this new infusion of capital, the startup aims to solidify its position by providing a more streamlined, integrated alternative to the often disconnected tools currently used in industrial monitoring.
