Cybernetic Neuralzome Secures USD 2.4 Million Pre-Seed Funding for Robotics Expansion
Bengaluru-Based Deeptech Startup Neuralzome Cybernetic Secures $2.4 Million Pre-Seed Funding
Neuralzome Cybernetic, a deeptech startup based in Bengaluru, has secured USD 2.4 million in a pre-seed funding round. The round was led by 8X Ventures, with participation from Turbostart, Avinya Ventures, Saka Ventures, Appreciate Capital, Astir Ventures, IIM Ahmedabad’s Centre for Innovation Incubation and Entrepreneurship (CIIE), Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI), and investor Heston Castelino.
Founded in 2023, Neuralzome Cybernetic designs teachable, no-code AI agents for real-world autonomy. The startup operates on a Robot-as-a-Service (RaaS) model, targeting high-value, labor-intensive sectors such as precision agriculture (orchard management), commercial landscaping, manufacturing, logistics, and mining.
Their flagship product, NeuralPilot, integrates with the RedPill simulation platform to generate photorealistic digital twins. This approach reduces on-field training time and costs, aiming to overcome major barriers to robotic adoption in practical environments.
The funds secured by Neuralzome Cybernetic will be directed towards advancing R&D in multi-agent autonomy and vision-based navigation, key areas for enhancing robot capabilities. The funds will also be used for scaling manufacturing to improve production readiness and expanding operations to North America and Europe, focusing on broader market penetration and global presence.
Mohan Sivam, Co-founder of Neuralzome Cybernetic, stated that the company is developing technologies to overcome key challenges blocking the adoption of robots in real-world scenarios. He also noted Neuralzome's mission to make robotic solutions accessible for everyday use.
With this funding, Neuralzome Cybernetic is progressing rapidly from a founding stage startup toward commercial deployment and international expansion while concentrating on research that enhances robotics autonomy and reduces operational complexity.
