Peak XV Partners

Peak XV Partners (formerly Sequoia Capital India & SEA) is a global VC firm with 20+ years of experience partnering with founders to build enduring companies.

[Peak XV Partners @peakxvpartners]

Three years ago today, we rebranded as Peak XV (Peak Fifteen), the original name of Mount Everest. The name speaks directly to our ambition: to aim for the highest peak there is, and to partner deeply with world-class founders making the climb.

Over the last few years, we have continued to evolve, expanding our presence across regions, deepening our work in AI and deeptech, and partnering with founders building for global maxima.

Today, we are unveiling a refreshed brand identity and website that reflect this evolution while staying rooted in the values and beliefs that define us.

Our new logo and visual system are inspired by Everest and the climb itself: the rugged terrain, the essential tools, and the shared discipline, resilience, and belief required to reach the summit.

Explore our new look at https://t.co/qtGk07EGPd and watch our latest brand film below.

We're as optimistic about the future as we've ever been.
Never settle in the foothills.

ISM 2.0 is a significant step toward building a globally competitive semiconductor ecosystem in India.

We welcome the vision and leadership of Minister Shri Ashwini Vaishnaw (@AshwiniVaishnaw), Shri S Krishnan (@SecretaryMEITY), and Shri Amitesh Kumar Sinha, Additional Secretary, MeitY & CEO, ISM, in driving this effort. 🇮🇳

As @RajanAnandan highlights in his interview with @CNBCTV18Live, India’s opportunity spans the full value chain—chip design, IP, talent, manufacturing, and ecosystem—and can produce globally competitive semiconductor companies.

The best founders don’t wait for the tools to catch up. They build them. Congrats on the launch @myprasanna.

From co-founding Rippling to building the autopilot for software engineering, backing Prasanna and @vorfluxai from day one.

@aakash_kpr

[Prasanna S @myprasanna]

Launching @vorfluxai : The autopilot for software engineering. I was prev co-founder / CTO of @Rippling ($10B) and #1 coder in India. Vorflux is my high octane Ferrari.

Every AI coding tool still makes you fly the plane. That's the copilot model: you stay in the seat, approving every turn. The models quietly got good enough to fly the whole route, but the tools never caught up.
So we built the autopilot.

@vorfluxai raised a $15M seed by @ycombinator @peakxvpartners @alliancedao @parkerconrad @jake_zeller @balajis @nivi @metakovan @lmrankhan @nikitabase @0xrwu @ayushjaiswal @mattshumer_ @eshamanideep @sreeramkannan @dvcoolster @nusimow @TeddySolomon11 @ashtoncofer @rvivek etc

Drop your biggest engineering bottleneck below. I'll reply with how I'd attack it with Vorflux, and hand you $200 in free credits to bang out your backlog.
Our full thesis 🧵👇

[Rajan Anandan @RajanAnandan]

Only 500 of India's top 5000 large companies have any software for procurement! Same situation in GCC, SEA and even the US mid market! Truly massive blue ocean market. Thrilled to see the progress that @gbaheti and team @Procol_ are making. If you are in a large enterprise and want to know how AI can transform procurement, look up @Procol_! @_surgeahead @peakxvpartners

[Surge @_surgeahead]

Inside @Procol_ : Building the AI workforce for enterprise procurement.

Procurement is one of the largest operating systems inside the enterprise, but in many companies it still runs on email, Excel, approvals, vendor follow-ups and fragmented workflows. The last generation of software helped teams manage these workflows. Procol is building for a world where AI agents increasingly run them, with humans setting intent, oversight and strategy.

For large enterprises, procurement is one of the biggest levers of margin, efficiency and risk. Procol is rebuilding this layer for the AI era, bringing agentic systems into source-to-pay across intake, sourcing, supplier management, contracting, invoicing, payments and spend analytics.

Procol’s proof is meaningful:
➡️$30B in spend managed
➡️3x growth in six quarters
➡️85% gross margins
➡️12% of the Nifty 50 as customers
➡️200+ enterprise transformations

This is our Surge Spotlight on Procol, part of our ongoing series highlighting category-defining companies and the shifts they represent 🙌

The first decisions often shape the longest journeys.

✔️The first product choices.
✔️The first hires.
✔️The first customers.
✔️The first markets.
✔️The design choices and hard decisions that shape everything after.

At Surge, we partner with founders at this stage, with up to $5M in seed funding, dedicated investment team, company-building support and a community built for the early journey.

A special milestone for @helloturtlemint as the company lists on the public markets today. 🔔

Over the last decade, @dhirendranm and Anand Prabhudesai have built patiently in one of India’s most important financial services categories.

Insurance is complex, trust-led and deeply local. Turtlemint’s journey shows what can happen when founders combine technology with a real understanding of how India buys financial products.

Huge congratulations to Dhirendra, Anand and the entire Turtlemint team! Proud to have been part of the journey. 🎉

JustAI is helping marketing teams move from manual campaign execution to autonomous marketing.

By bringing together strategy, creative, decisioning and data agents, @getjustai gives marketers a unified system to understand user context, generate campaigns, optimize decisions and continuously learn from results.

Huge congratulations to Neha Mittal (@neha01mittal), Jeff Hara (@kchro3) and the JustAI team on their $17M Series A!

As Neha puts it: “The real opportunity with AI is not another dashboard or another automation layer. It is giving every great marketer the ability to operate with the leverage of an entire team.”

Proud to have partnered with JustAI from @_surgeahead to Series A, and excited to see the team continue building for the next gen of enterprise marketing. 🚀

We were first investors with Kunal in both Freecharge and @CRED_club and have had a front row seat, watching Kunal create new categories. Cred would not be here without Kunal’s incredible vision and leadership.

Cred is in a terrific spot today. With strong market share in core categories, incredible distribution and user love, significant revenue scale, a world class team working together for many years and a rock solid balance sheet.

I am excited about the next phase of Cred, which will be about consistent and profitable compounding and an accelerated journey to IPO. Looking forward to working with Miten and the team on this next phase.

₹50 crore ARR in 8 months. 50,000+ customers served. 🚀
A fabulous start for @tenxyou_in and an early signal of the consumer pull for sportswear and performance products built for India.

Great to see a company from our most recent Surge cohort scale so rapidly!

Congratulations Sachin Tendulkar (@sachin_rt), Karthik Gurumurthy, Karan Arora and team. 👏

Congratulations @amanrsanger and the entire @cursor_ai team on the incredible $60 Billion SpaceX acquisition. We can't wait to see where Cursor goes from here!

We hosted Aman at our Surge US Immersion back in February 2025. At that time, Cursor was sitting at an impressive $100M ARR.

Flash forward just 16 months later? $4B ARR. 🤯 An absolute masterclass in scale and speed.

We knew you were building something special, but this pace is legendary.

Catch our Immersion session video where Aman breaks down how they went from 0 -> $100M within a year, building unbeatable product moats, and more with @RajanAnandan 👇

India's AI opportunity isn't just about adopting AI: it's about building the full AI stack. 🚀
From day one the team at @SarvamAI has been working on this.

Excited to double down on our partnership with @vivekrag (Vivek Raghavan), @pratykumar (Pratyush Kumar) and the team as they build foundational AI capabilities for India: designed for India's unique realities and population-scale needs.

Congratulations to the team on this important milestone! 🙌

[Sarvam @SarvamAI]

We're thrilled to announce that we have raised $234M in the first close of our $300M Series B at a $1.5B valuation.

@HCLTech and @BessemerVP have joined us in this round, alongside continued support from @khoslaventures and @peakxvpartners

For countries and companies, sovereign control on the AI stack is no longer an optionality. Sarvam will be the partner of choice for this aspiration. The capital allows us to accelerate our momentum towards this full stack of models, compute, and deployments.

A huge thank you to our customers, partners, investors, and the Sarvam team for your trust and belief in what we are building. We’re just getting started.
