Headlining the investment consortium is Disrupt.com, a renowned venture builder, accompanied by Indus Valley Capital, a prominent early-stage VC fund, Yousuf Khan, an esteemed advisor and investor, along with angel investors affiliated with tech giants Google and Meta, among others hailing from tech hotspots like San Francisco, New York City, Toronto, Singapore, and Dubai.
