Grexa AI, a marketing technology startup, has raised ₹15.5 crore in a seed funding round led by Utsav Somani (Founder, Offline Club and former CEO, AngelList India).
The round also saw participation from Bharat Founders Fund, DeVC, Vernalis Capital, and several angel investors, including Revant Bhate (Founder, Mosaic Wellness), Vaibhav Domkundwar (Founder, Better Capital), Sumit Gupta (Founder, CoinDCX), Ramakant Sharma (Founder, Livspace), and others.
The fresh funds raised will be used to accelerate product innovation and support go-to-market efforts. Grexa AI also plans to continue developing its autonomous platform, which uses artificial intelligence to drive marketing performance based on real-time business data.
Founded in 2024 by Ashutosh Kumar, Ayush Varshney, Arpit Oswal, and Narendra Agrawal, Grexa AI offers an all-in-one platform that automates digital marketing for small businesses such as salons, clinics, gyms, cafés, travel agencies, and coaching centres. The platform handles social media, local SEO, advertisements, and website management without requiring technical expertise.
Currently, over 21,600 businesses have adopted the service since its beta launch. Grexa AI aims to empower one million small businesses over the next two years.
Ashutosh Kumar, co-founder of Grexa AI, said, “Our mission with Grexa is to reimagine how India’s 6 crore+ small businesses market themselves. Most of these businesses either rely on agencies, which are expensive, or on DIY tools that are too complex. We’re bringing the power of full-funnel, always-on marketing to their fingertips—without the overhead.”
Utsav Somani said, “We believe Grexa’s approach to simplifying digital growth through automation is highly relevant for India’s SMB landscape. The team’s proven track record and understanding of India’s grassroots market gives them a strong edge.”
