Chandigarh-based AI-robotics startup Terafac has raised Rs 6.5 crore ($800K) in a pre-seed round led by Inuka Capital. Other investors include DEVC, Bharat Founders Fund, Innovation Mission Punjab, and select angels.

The proceeds will be used for product innovation, market expansion, and hiring.

Founded by Anubhi Khandelwal and Amrit Singh, Terafac has developed an AI-Vision platform that converts standard industrial robots into intelligent, self-adjusting machines.

Its first product, WeldT, automates welding using computer vision to handle high product variations. The startup plans to expand its solution across tasks like gluing, painting, and inspection.

Terafac operates on a "Software-as-a-Skill" model and targets 80 deployments across 20 customers in the next year. Its business model revolves around providing AI-based manufacturing automation tools to OEMs and factories, aiming to reach Rs 8 crore in ARR by FY26.
