Wootz.work raises $6.6 Mn in Series A round led by Z47

B2B engineering equipment marketplace Wootz.work has raised $6.6 million in a Series A funding round led by Z47, along with continued participation from Nexus Venture Partners and AdvantEdge Founders, and the addition of Stride Ventures.

The Delhi-based startup had previously raised $3.5 million in a seed funding round in August 2023, led by Matrix Partners India and Nexus Venture Partners.

The fresh capital will be deployed to expand its engineering footprint, deepen manufacturing control systems, and enable larger, mission-critical OEM programs, Wootz.work said in a press release.

Co-founded in 2023 by Karan Anand and Himanshu Uniyal, Wootz.work is a global advanced engineering and manufacturing solutions company serving OEMs. Operating across India and Southeast Asia, with teams in India, the US, the UK, and Italy, it integrates engineering, precision manufacturing, and digitally governed quality systems to deliver globally competitive manufacturing outcomes at scale.

While offshoring promises savings, in reality, 15–30% of anticipated savings are typically lost due to coordination failures, including delays, rework, quality breakdowns, and management bandwidth drain.

Wootz.work flips the model by operating as a single, accountable manufacturing partner for complex industrial programs across India and Southeast Asia, with onshore manufacturing where required in customer markets. It orchestrates factories while taking full accountability for execution.

According to Wootz.work, it maps, qualifies, and governs capacity across regions, compressing timelines from years to weeks and giving global enterprises visibility from raw material to final delivery.

Over the past year, the company claims to have delivered complex cross-border programs for more than 22 global enterprises, operated across 12 international trade lanes—including the US, UK, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Australia, and New Zealand—activated over 300 suppliers, executed more than 30 million parts and assemblies, and maintained over 98% on-time delivery and quality compliance under stringent global frameworks.
