SaaS startup Scalekit raises $5.5 Mn in seed round led by Together Fund and Z47

SaaS startup Scalekit has raised $5.5 million in a seed round led by Together Fund and Z47, with participation from angel investors including Adam Frankl, Oliver Jay, and Jagadeesh Kunda. 

Founded by Satya Devarakonda and a team of ex-Freshworks engineers,  Scalekit offers modular, drop-in infrastructure for SaaS and AI-first teams. Products include MCP Auth for agentic servers, Agent Actions for secure API calls with consent and revocation, and modern human authentication with enterprise features like SSO and SCIM. Unlike monolithic solutions like Auth0, Scalekit’s à-la-carte approach lets developers adopt only what they need.

The founding team previously developed Freshworks’ in-house auth platform, now used by over 50,000 businesses and 2 million users, and saw firsthand how painful it was for SaaS teams to deliver secure, enterprise-ready authentication. 

The firm is building the authentication and actions layer for AI-native applications.

With protocols like the Model Context Protocol (MCP), applications are exposing functionality directly to agents, breaking traditional identity systems designed for humans. Scalekit is now building the authentication foundation for the agentic era.

Already used by startups such as Hubbl, Sifthub, Fello, Unstract, Tiphaus, and Aerchain, Scalekit helps teams move agentic workflows from prototypes to production.
