Market intelligence startup Mindcase raises seed funding led by AJVC

Market intelligence startup Mindcase has raised Rs 1.5 crore in its pre-seed funding round led by early-stage venture capital firm AJVC.

The capital will be used to scale Mindcase’s self-serve SaaS platform and expand its data and intelligence coverage across new domains and markets, while accelerating global go-to-market efforts, the company said in a press release.

Founded by IIM Ahmedabad alumni Kritish Puri and Saurabh Shubham, Mindcase uses hundreds of proprietary AI agents and workflows to turn unstructured market and consumer data into ready-to-use insights that strategy and business teams rely on to make decisions.

The Gurugram-based startup works with large enterprises through custom market intelligence solutions and is now scaling its reach through a fast, self-serve SaaS platform built to drive broader adoption and repeat usage.

Going forward, Mindcase plans to deepen its product capabilities with more advanced agentic workflows, support a wider range of use cases, and continue building a robust intelligence platform for business and strategy teams globally.

Mindcase joins a growing list of early-stage companies backed by Aviral Bhatnagar-led AJVC. Other portfolio companies include Care Dale, HandyPanda, Multibagg AI, Nuyug, Mithila Foods, Jaagruk Bharat, TruFides AI, Chop Finance, Gaadi Mech and Iztri.
