Bengaluru-based enterprise AI startup QwikBuild has raised US$2.3 million (about ₹22 crore) in a Pre-Seed funding round. Japanese tech major Globalway led the round, with participation from Blume Ventures, DeVC, Marsshot, and angel investors Lalit Keshre and Ankit Nagori. QwikBuild builds enterprise software and AI agents that reduce software development and deployment time.
Use of funds
QwikBuild will use the fresh capital primarily for go-to-market activities. It plans to set up a team in the US. The startup also expects to expand operations across Southeast Asia.
Company footprint
QwikBuild was founded in 2025 by Pradeep Ayyagari, a former slice executive. It says it serves more than 100 enterprises across India, Southeast Asia, the US, and Dubai. About 30% of clients are smaller businesses that use the platform without dedicated technology teams.
What the platform does
QwikBuild combines custom software development with AI-driven workflow automation. Businesses can build applications from scratch or add custom software layers on top of tools from SAP and Salesforce. The platform focuses on codifying business decisions rather than automating individual tasks alone.
QwikBuild also formed a joint venture with Globalway to enter Japan's enterprise software market. The JV will take QwikBuild's platform to Globalway's existing and prospective enterprise customers in Japan. It is expected to become operational by the end of 2026.
