Deccan AI, a startup focused on post-training data and AI evaluation, has raised $25 million in a Series A funding round led by A91 Partners. The round also saw participation from Susquehanna International Group (SIG) and Prosus Ventures.
The company plans to use the fresh capital to expand its enterprise-focused AI offerings and further strengthen its platform for deploying and evaluating AI systems.
Founded by Rukesh Reddy, Deccan AI initially worked with frontier AI labs, providing data and model training support. Over time, it has expanded its focus to enterprise solutions, helping businesses deploy, monitor, and improve AI systems in real-world environments.
The startup offers a range of products, including an evaluation platform that tracks model performance and an enterprise system that uses AI agents to automate back-office and middle-office workflows.
Deccan AI is now targeting large enterprises, including Fortune 500 companies, as it scales its operations. Its client base already includes global names such as Google DeepMind and Snowflake. Currently, the company has onboarded around 10 customers and manages a couple of dozen active projects at any given time.
As part of its growth strategy, Deccan AI is also strengthening its presence in India with a new office in Bengaluru. This will complement its existing operations in San Francisco and Hyderabad, with a focus on driving enterprise adoption in the Indian market.
With increasing demand for reliable and scalable AI systems, Deccan AI aims to position itself as a key player in helping businesses adopt and manage AI more effectively.
