Skylark Drones bags $3 Mn in pre-Series A

Drone company Skylark Drones has raised $3 million in a pre-series A funding round co-led by investors InfoEdge Ventures and IAN Fund with participation from AdvantEdge Founders, Fowler Westrup, Redstart Labs, IKP and Vimson group.

According to the company, the proceeds will help it to strengthen its product offerings and fuel international expansion. 

The Mughilan Thiru Ramasamy-led startup has built an indigenous platform that facilitates quick mobilization of independent drone pilots, enabling them to run drone missions to gather aerial images of large worksites. 

The startup has two flagship products: Spectra and Drone Mission Ops. Spectra offers end-to-end solutions by enabling worksite intelligence and several platform integrations and API access whereas Drone Mission Ops enables project and fleet management for large enterprises and individual operators.

It further aims to elevate worksite productivity and safety by providing geospatial intelligence to different enterprises in sectors such as mining, solar power, real estate, agriculture and inspection.

Skylark had raised its seed round in 2018.
