Runable Raises $21M to Expand AI Business Platform
Runable has raised $21 million in Series A funding to expand its AI platform for building, running and growing businesses. The round was co-led by Susquehanna Venture Capital and Nexus Venture Partners. Existing investors Together Fund and Array VC also participated in the financing.
The Bengaluru-based startup was founded in 2025 by Umesh Kumar and Saksham Sarda. It has grown to about 1.5 million users with a team of just 15 people. The company said its launch took annualised revenue from zero to $2 million within three weeks.
Runable Targets Business Growth Beyond Software
Runable is designed to handle business operations beyond simply creating software. Its platform can build websites, mobile applications, internal tools and pitch decks. It also includes infrastructure features such as databases, authentication, payments and deployment.
Once a product is launched, Runable can support ongoing business operations from the same platform. Its capabilities include market analysis, prospect generation, social content and customer support. The platform also handles SEO, answer engine optimisation and competitor monitoring.
The company is now expanding into customer acquisition through AI-driven marketing. Runable can manage campaigns across ChatGPT Ads, Meta, Google, LinkedIn and TikTok. It can also support cold emails, direct messages and voice calls through a real phone number.
AI Agent Targets Small Business Owners

Runable is primarily targeting small businesses with limited teams and resources. Its users include agencies, consultancies and cleaning companies across the United States, United Kingdom, Japan and Brazil. Many of these businesses operate with only two people.
The platform aims to give these businesses capabilities normally requiring larger marketing, engineering and operations teams. Kumar said the company believes many small businesses are disadvantaged by tooling rather than weaker ideas.
The startup initially operated as an AI infrastructure company focused on browser technology and large-scale data extraction. Customer demand for websites, presentations and other business tasks eventually pushed the founders towards a general-purpose agent.
Runable has also introduced Runable Academy, a free learning module for business owners. The company plans to expand its growth capabilities with additional marketing channels and deeper campaign measurement.

Funding Supports Platform Expansion
The new financing will support hiring across engineering, machine learning, product, growth and customer support. Runable will also invest in expanding its growth capabilities and strengthening the technology behind its autonomous agent.
The startup says users have consumed more than one trillion tokens during the past 90 days. Around 60% to 70% of that usage reportedly comes from paying customers. However, Runable currently operates with negative gross margins partly because it subsidises AI usage.
The company expects declining AI inference costs to improve its economics over time. It is also working with multiple AI models and developing proprietary technology. Its strategy is to combine software creation, infrastructure and distribution within one workflow.
Runable competes with general-purpose AI agents such as Manus and Genspark. It also operates alongside coding platforms including Cursor, Lovable and Replit. However, Runable is positioning itself around business outcomes rather than software development alone.
Runable’s Series A gives the company additional resources to develop this broader approach. Susquehanna Venture Capital and Nexus Venture Partners said the platform addresses the gap between AI-generated output and measurable business outcomes.
