ZeroMobIt, a Hyderabad-based student mobility startup, has raised ₹1.5 crore in a pre-seed funding round, led by prominent angel investors like Sandeep Varaganti (CEO, JioMart), Dr. Ashok Agrawal (SVP, Axis Bank), and HNIs.
The funds raised will be used to accelerate its AI-native technology development, operational expansion and infrastructure roadmap, advancing the firm in its long-term infrastructure vision.
ZeroMobIt will bolster its core architecture and orchestration systems for compliant and scalable student mobility by developing an AI-native platform. Additionally, the firm will use the funds to build decentralised intelligence layers with Edge AI to enhance real-time safety, route optimisation, and operational resilience.
ZeroMobIt will also aim to accelerate campus partnerships, fleet expansion, and compliance infrastructure across Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Vijayawada, Vishakhapatnam, Chennai, and Mumbai, signalling operational expansion for long-term growth. The company will also look to increase its core team strength, hiring across engineering, operations and growth to support scalability.
