Exclusive: Robotics startup Miko to raise $155 Mn at $550 Mn valuation

Child companion robot maker Miko is raising Rs 1,325 crore ($155 million) in its Series D round from AMDG-PAX Foundation, a US-based non-profit organisation.

The board of RN Chidakashi Technologies Private Limited, which operates under the brand name Miko, has passed a special resolution to issue 22,465 preference shares at an issue price of Rs 5.9 lakh each to raise the sum, its regulatory filing with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) shows.

According to the filing, the fresh proceeds will be utilized to meet business requirements and other general corporate purposes. Entrackr estimates the company’s post-money valuation at around $550 million, a 2.7X increase from its previous round.

Queries sent to Miko on Friday did not receive any response until the story was published.

Miko.ai runs on a hybrid model, selling AI-powered robots such as Miko Mini and Miko 3 priced in the Rs 15,000–25,000 range, while also pushing its premium subscription Miko Max to drive recurring revenues beyond device sales. The company claims to serve customers in over 140 countries, including the US, Europe, and the Middle East.

So far, Miko has raised over $75 million (excluding this round), including a $29 million Series B round led by IvyCap Ventures. According to the filing, AMDG-PAX Foundation will hold 27.87% (post-allotment) of the firm.

While Miko’s Indian entity has yet to file its FY25 annual report, its revenue from operations grew 58% to Rs 358 crore in FY24, compared to Rs 225 crore in FY23. Its losses stood at Rs 120 crore in FY24.

Miko competes with PlayShifu, Avishkaar, and WitBlox, among others.
