Bengaluru-based short-form learning platform Seekho has raised $28 million (around ₹233 crore) in its Series B round, led by Bessemer Venture Partners. The round also saw participation from Goodwater Capital, Lightspeed Venture Partners, and Elevation Capital.
According to sources, Seekho’s post-money valuation is expected to touch $120–130 million. This takes the company’s total funding to $39 million across three rounds, with backing from marquee investors such as Lightspeed, Elevation, PointOne Capital, Sprout Investment, AngelList, Succeed, and a group of prominent angel investors including Gaurav Munjal, Anupam Mittal, Alok Mittal, Harsh Daga, Abhinav Daga, Hemant Goteti, and Zishaan Hayath.
Growth and Vision
Founded in 2020 by Rohit Choudhary, Keertay Agarwal, and Yash Banwani, Seekho offers bite-sized vernacular learning content across categories like career, business, and self-growth. The company claims to have reached 25 million monthly active users, growing at a rapid 60% quarter-on-quarter.
“Learning should be relevant, bite-sized, and accessible in the palm of your hand. With Bessemer joining us, we’re excited to build a category-defining product that puts Edutainment on Tap for the next 500 million Indians,” said Rohit Choudhary, co-founder of Seekho.
The company plans to use the fresh funds to launch new content formats and build AI-first solutions that make learning more engaging and personalized.
Market Opportunity
Seekho is betting on the $2.5 billion digital subscription economy in India, fueled by the growing willingness of consumers to pay for content and the adoption of UPI autopay.
For FY24, the startup reported ₹11.5 crore in revenue with ₹4.6 crore in losses. Its FY25 financials are yet to be disclosed.
