[L-R] Founders of Elevate Now and Preventify

Elevate Now Raises INR 18 Cr in Seed Funding Led by Physis Capital

Elevate Now, a doctor-led clinical weight loss platform, has raised INR 18 crore in a seed funding round led by Physis Capital, with participation from Inflection Point Ventures and Titan Capital.

The Bengaluru-based startup had earlier raised USD 2 million in a pre-seed round from W Health Ventures, Narayana Health, and Swiggy co-founder Sriharsha Majety.

The startup plans to use the fresh capital to strengthen its technology platform, expand clinical research, develop medicinal and nutritional supplements, and build advanced personalisation systems aimed at improving outcomes at scale.

Founded in November 2022 by Suryansh Kumar, Elevate Now focuses on non-surgical, medically supervised weight loss solutions. Its approach centres on identifying underlying causes of weight gain such as insulin resistance, inflammation, and hormonal imbalances, instead of relying solely on calorie restriction. Based on these assessments, the platform offers personalised treatment plans under medical supervision.

Elevate Now operates through a fully online, subscription-based model, with programmes ranging from three to 24 months. Each user is assigned a physician trained in obesity medicine, supported by diagnostic tests, glucose monitoring data, and a health coach.

The startup said it has onboarded more than 30,000 paying users so far, with users recording an average weight loss of about 10 kilograms over six months. It reported an average monthly revenue growth of 17% between April 2025 and January 2026.

Elevate Now competes with players such as HealthifyMe, Sugarfit, and Fittr.

Satlabs Bags USD 1 Mn from Finvolve and India Accelerator

Deep-tech startup Satlabs Space Systems has raised USD 1 million in a funding round from Finvolve and India Accelerator (IA).

The Bengaluru-based company said the capital will be used to accelerate research and development, advance satellite deployment plans, and scale its data relay network.

Founded in February 2023 by Sooraj Gopakumar and Saisree Eega, Satlabs is addressing delays in downlinking Earth observation data caused by limited ground station coverage. Its data relay solution is designed to reduce data transmission latency from several hours to a few minutes, with a longer-term aim of enabling near real-time communication. This is expected to support applications across defence, agriculture, disaster response, offshore energy, and industrial Internet of Things (IoT).

The startup said it is progressing toward the launch of its proof-of-concept relay satellite and has outlined plans for phased constellation deployment in the coming years. Its technology roadmap also extends to non-terrestrial industrial IoT connectivity, enabling real-time communication in regions beyond the reach of terrestrial networks.

Satlabs said it is developing a constellation of low-cost data relay satellites that act as "floating ground stations," enabling faster and more continuous communication between satellites and end users.

Preventify Secures INR 2 Cr in Pre-seed Round Led by PedalStart

Healthcare startup Preventify has raised INR 2 crore in a pre-seed funding round led by PedalStart, with participation from a group of angel investors. These include Viren Shetty of Narayana Health, Jatin Kakrani of Dezy, founders of Supertails and Agrizy, along with senior executives from the healthcare sector.

The startup plans to use the funds to set up its first cluster of 10 clinics, expand programmes focused on chronic and lifestyle disease management, and strengthen its technology infrastructure. Investments will also go into integrating diagnostics and pharmacy services.

Founded by Nirmal NR and Dr Rakesh, Preventify operates a clinic-led healthcare model with a focus on preventive and chronic care in tier-II and tier-III markets. The startup currently runs three clinics in Kerala and says it has served more than 40,000 patients to date.

Preventify manages conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and respiratory diseases using protocol-driven care. Its approach combines in-clinic consultations with digital monitoring and structured follow-ups.

Over the next 12 to 18 months, the startup plans to expand across Kerala and build larger clinical and care coordination teams.
