LabelBlind Solutions, an AI-led digital food labelling SaaS solution, has raised $500,000 in a seed funding round.
The funds raised will be used to accelerate the development of our proprietary platform, FoLSol and expand its capabilities to match global regulatory expectations.
Founded in 2023 by Partho Chakravarty and Rashida Vapiwala, Labelblind is a food labelling and regulatory compliance platform that is digitizing food labelling solutions for domestic and global markets.
LabelBlind solves six critical challenges: keeping up with ongoing regulatory updates, creating and validating labels for different markets, conducting compliance audits, interpreting regulations, mapping cross-border regulatory linkages, and identifying regulatory and consumer risk exposures.
The company’s flagship product, FoLSol, serves as a comprehensive regulatory intelligence platform that streamlines labelling workflows – from label creation to validation – for packed food, fresh food, e-commerce, and export companies.
The company provide a proprietary global ingredient database, AI/ML-powered algorithms, and SAP/ERP-ready interfaces.
The company is working on advanced AI models that can read, interpret, and validate food labels in minutes, reducing compliance validation time from 8-10 hours to just 30 minutes.
Furthermore, FoLSol will generate 100% regulation-compliant food labels for the USA, Canada, EU, UK, Australia-New Zealand, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, Southeast Asia, and other emerging markets, all from a single unified platform with country-specific regulations, multilingual support, and ready-to-print capabilities.
LabelBlind already powers compliance operations for India’s leading food brands, including Bikanervala (Bikano), Hindustan Unilever, Everest Masale, Goldiee Group, ITC Hotels, Tata Starbucks, Swiggy, and Tim Hortons, among others.
LabelBlind also has plans to expand its footprint through advanced-stage discussions with India’s largest food companies to digitise end-to-end labelling workflows and build AI-enabled compliance intelligence.
Dr Rashida Vapiwala, Founder and CEO, LabelBlind, said, “At LabelBlind, we believe that food labelling compliance shouldn’t be a regulatory burden. Our technology enables companies to reduce manual processes, eliminate human oversight risks, and accelerate time-to-market, all while ensuring 100% regulatory compliance. This seed funding is more than a mere financial investment; it is a validation of our vision to make India the most trusted and transparent food-exporting nation in the world.”
