Participated · Seed · Sep 2023
insideFPV is a defence drone technology startup founded in 2020 by Arth Chowdhary, Deyvant Bhardwaj and Oshi Kumari to plug critical gaps in India’s combat-ready unmanned systems. The company develops first-person-view (FPV) drones, surveillance drones and interceptor drones that are engineered to function reliably in harsh battlefield environments. Its platforms have already undergone high-altitude trials with the Indian Army, demonstrating performance in extreme conditions. With a product roadmap centred on trusted, indigenous hardware, insideFPV intends to deepen core engineering work and advance its defence platforms’ reliability. The startup plans to channel new capital into product development, capability building and fortifying its core drone lines. Financially, the company has secured a ₹6 crore pre-Series A round to fuel these initiatives, although no revenue or user figures were disclosed. Management views the recent investment as a key endorsement of its mission-critical technology ambitions.
