Bengaluru, 16th October 2024: Alchemyst AI, a generative AI (Gen-AI) SaaS startup, has successfully raised $300K in a pre-seed funding round led by Inflection Point Ventures, with participation from 100Unicorns and Early Seed Ventures.

This funding will be instrumental in expanding the startup’s GPU and technology infrastructure, enhancing team development, scaling operations, and driving overall growth.

Founded in 2023 by Uttaran Nayak and Anuran Roy, Alchemyst AI is revolutionizing AI automation and enterprise productivity by developing “digital employees”—autonomous agents that perform intelligent functional tasks across mid-to-large enterprises.

Uttaran Nayak, Co-Founder & CEO of Alchemyst AI, shared, “At Alchemyst AI, we are at the forefront of creating fully autonomous generative AI digital employees. These employees work together, perform complex tasks, and transform workforce dynamics by democratizing productivity, all without human intervention. Over the past year, we’ve observed significant evolution in the AI automation landscape, and noticed that most companies depend heavily on generic foundational models for workforce automation. These dependencies hinder scalability and leave companies vulnerable. Alchemyst AI addresses this by developing advanced technology that operates independently of such models.”

Alchemyst AI’s technology is based on adaptive and continual learning, allowing their digital employees, or “Alchemysts,” to gather context autonomously from user input, ensuring optimal performance tailored to specific business needs.

Vikram Ramasubramaniam, Partner at Inflection Point Ventures, said, “In today’s fast-paced business environment, managing productivity and delivering superior customer experiences is a constant challenge. Traditional methods often fall short, leading to inefficiencies and missed opportunities. Alchemyst AI is solving these problems with its generative AI-powered digital employees, enabling businesses to automate routine tasks and focus on high-value activities. By emphasizing robust security and scalable solutions, Alchemyst AI is set to transform the future of work.”

Dr. Apoorva Ranjan Sharma, Co-founder of 100Unicorns, added, “At 100Unicorns, we believe in the transformative power of generative AI to enhance everyday life. Alchemyst AI’s innovative digital employees seamlessly integrate into business workflows, making the workforce smarter, more efficient, and future-ready. We’re excited to support a startup that’s truly reshaping automation and addressing the tech talent gap for mid-to-large businesses.”

Alchemyst AI is on track for global expansion, targeting key markets including India, the USA, the MENA region, and Southeast Asia. With the generative AI market expected to grow to $330 billion by 2030, the startup is poised for significant opportunities. Currently, the global market is valued at $37 billion, with India contributing $3 billion, highlighting the immense potential for innovative AI solutions.
