INFLUISH, a platform focused on helping creators manage growth, learning and monetisation, has raised a pre seed funding round at a valuation of Rs 25 crore. The round saw participation from investors including Pankaj Vermani, Co-founder of Clovia, along with angel investors Jeetendra Tewani and Sachin Harneja.
The startup is the first company supported by the CoFounder Circle Accelerator, a platform focused on venture creation and startup acceleration founded by Darpan Sanghvi.
According to the company, the capital will be used for product development and technology infrastructure. Planned investments include improvements to brand and agency dashboards, expansion of creator growth tools and enhancement of platform capabilities.
The company said it was profitable at the time of the fundraise and intends to use the investment to strengthen its product offerings, expand creator tools and support further growth. INFLUISH operates within the creator economy sector, where creators often use multiple platforms and services for audience growth, monetisation and brand collaborations.
Founded by Sankalp Nag, Tushar Jain and Shivani Rajora, INFLUISH provides tools and services for creators, including access to verified Instagram insights through Meta APIs, brand collaboration opportunities, automation features, learning resources and workflow management for creator brand partnerships.
Commenting on the fundraise, Sankalp Nag, Co-founder & CEO of INFLUISH, said “This fundraise is a strong validation of our vision to build the home of creators. While most platforms focus on helping creators secure campaigns, we’re building the infrastructure layer that helps them grow, learn, earn, and manage their entire journey from a single platform.”
He further added, “Creators today need much more than brand deals. They need trusted tools, verified insights, growth systems, and monetisation opportunities that help them build sustainable businesses. The trust we’ve earned from hundreds of thousands of creators reinforces our belief that the creator economy doesn’t need another marketplace, it needs infrastructure.”
“We’re grateful to CoFounder Circle for being the first to recognise the potential in our vision and the angels, ecosystem supporters, and the broader CoFounder Circle community that have backed our vision and supported our journey. This funding will help us accelerate product innovation, strengthen our platform capabilities, and create even more value for creators and brands.” he said.
Speaking on the investment, Pankaj Verma, Co-founder Clovia commented, “The creator economy is rapidly evolving, and we believe the next wave of value creation will come from platforms that empower creators beyond just brand collaborations. What impressed us about INFLUISH is its vision of building a comprehensive ecosystem where creators can grow, learn, earn, and manage their professional journey.”
He further added, “The team has demonstrated strong execution and a deep understanding of creator needs, and we are excited to support them as they build the infrastructure powering the future of the creator economy.”
