Cuzor Technology, a consumer electronics brand, has raised ₹5 crore in seed funding from Ramesh Kannan, founder and MD of Kaynes Technology India. This is Kannan’s first personal angel investment.
The funds raised will be used to support product innovation and expansion into new categories.
Founded in 2020 by Sachin Naik, Ashwani Rajan and Saurabh Lakhera, Cuzor Labs focuses on building performance-driven, customer-centric products with complete in-house R&D and local manufacturing.
Cuzor has launched a 70W GaNSense charger. The charger can produce up to 70W of peak power, and with its smart dual-port distribution, it allots up to 25W for smartphones instead of the standard 20W. Thus, enabling 25% faster charging even when two devices are plugged in.
The charger is powered by Navitas GaNSense Gen 4 IC, the Pulse 70W boasts 91% peak efficiency, low heat generation, and a high power density of 11.97 W/in³. Moreover, it features full silicone potting and a robust polycarbonate enclosure for durability.
The device is compatible with PD 3.0, PPS, QC2.0, and QC3.0 protocols. It supports a wide range of devices, including iPhone 16 Pro Max, Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, Pixel 8 Pro, MacBook Air/Pro, and Dell XPS laptops. The charger comes with a two-year doorstep warranty and is designed as a single, compact charging solution.
The product is priced at ₹2,499 and is available now on Amazon.
Sachin D Naik, Founder and CEO, said, “The testing of the products were done at STPI Smart Lab set by the government. For a startup like us, setting up a testing lab is too costly. Thus, these STPI Smart Labs helped us. We were also offered discounts while obtaining BIS certification.”
“The government can provide facilities for small tooling, quick prototyping, and rapid designings, all of which can aid startups like us to reduce our turnaround time during the initial phase of our product designing and research,” he adds.
Ramesh Kannan said, “I have always believed that Indian engineering and manufacturing can stand shoulder to shoulder with the best in the world. The Cuzor team has not only demonstrated grit in designing and manufacturing their products end-to-end, but also shown a strong commitment to customers, the kind you typically see with world-class global brands. I’ve been following them since their very first product and have watched them grow steadily and patiently. I’m delighted to support their journey and look forward to Cuzor emerging as a leader in India’s consumer electronics space.”
