Seekho, a short-form learning platform, has raised $28 million in its Series B funding round led by Bessemer Venture Partners. The round also saw participation from Goodwater Capital and existing investors Lightspeed Venture Partners and Elevation Capital.
The fresh funds raised will be used to build new experiences through new content formats and to leverage AI-first solutions.
Previously, in December 2024, the Bengaluru-based startup raised $8 million in Series A funding led by Lightspeed.
Founded in 2020 by Rohit Choudhary, Keertay Agarwal and Yash Banwani, Seekho provides bite-sized, curated, vernacular learning content. This content, delivered in 3-5 minute videos, focuses on practical knowledge for career and self-growth.
Seekho currently has 25 million monthly active users, demonstrating a 60% quarter-over-quarter growth.
Rohit Choudhary, Founder, Seekho, said, “At Seekho, our mission is to make learning fun and easy for everyone regardless of language, location or background. We believe learning should be relevant, bite-sized, and accessible in the palm of your hand. With Bessemer joining us on this journey, we’re excited to build a category-defining product that puts ‘Edutainment on Tap’ for the next 500 million Indians. This funding will accelerate our vision of making learning as seamless as scrolling a feed – but with impact that lasts a lifetime.”
Anant Vidur Puri, Partner at Bessemer Venture Partners, said, “The trifecta of 800 million+ smartphone users in India, each of them spending 7-8 hours a day, and frictionless online payments means that almost all aspects of life have moved to digital platforms – from buying groceries to financial transactions and now, with Seekho, education as well. The stellar team at Seekho is perfectly positioned to help all segments of India across Metros and tiers of cities lead fuller, better-informed lives. We wish them all the best.”
