Perceptyne, a cutting-edge robotics startup focused on AI-driven solutions, has successfully raised $3 million in a seed funding round. This round was co-led by Endiya Partners and Yali Capital, with additional participation from Whiteboard Capital and several prominent angel investors. The new capital will accelerate Perceptyne's product development and customer acquisition efforts, aimed at advancing industrial automation through AI-powered robots.

Advanced AI-Driven Robotics

Perceptyne’s flagship robots, the PR-34D (dual-arm) and PR-9D (single-arm), are designed to perform complex tasks requiring human-like dexterity, such as assembly and packaging. These robots are equipped with cutting-edge AI, computer vision, and multi-modal sensing technology, enabling manufacturers to enhance efficiency and adaptability in their production processes. The integration time for these robots is dramatically reduced from months to weeks, making them a highly attractive solution for industries such as automotive and electronics.

Founders and Vision

The company was founded by Raviteja Chivukula, Jagga Raju Nadimpalli, and Mrutyunjaya Nadiminti, who bring extensive experience from the aerospace, automotive, and electronics industries. Perceptyne is well-positioned to address the growing demand for automation in the manufacturing sector, driven by initiatives like India’s Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, as well as global trends toward reshoring and addressing labor shortages. The company's innovative approach to automation places it at the intersection of AI and robotics, which is poised to revolutionize the manufacturing landscape.
