Hex is building an AI-native platform for data analytics. Where the primitive for analytics is code. Built for the agentic era.

Peak XV is excited to lead a $100M financing round for Hex as Barry and Caitlin embark on the audacious journey to build the next generation of data analytics. Model-neutral, analytics as code, available on any surface.

Great conversations, familiar faces and plenty of new connections! ✨

It was wonderful to bring together friends from across the startup and venture ecosystem at our Peak XV mixer in San Francisco, on the sidelines of @TechCrunch Disrupt last week.

One of the best parts of being in this ecosystem is the people you meet and the relationships you build along the way. Always a pleasure to reconnect with old friends and make some new ones.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us and made it such a lovely evening!

Incredible energy at @TechCrunch Disrupt this morning!

Our MD Shailendra Singh joined the Builders Stage for a conversation on the evolving funding landscape and what it takes to build breakout companies.

“A few special companies can break out, and then the dispersion is very high on the terms you might get, how much capital you can raise and at what terms.”

Great to see these conversations on stage as the ecosystem continues to evolve @sjs_day1 @peakxvpartners

Thank you @DominicMadori for hosting an incredible discussion.

@samidhas @lkeshre @viditaatrey Amazing! Looks like a great event with some of the best founders in the room @samidhas 😊💥🙌🏼

[Simran Kodesia @SimranKodesia]

@RajanAnandan It was my privilege @RajanAnandan 😊🙏🏼#grateful

[Simran Kodesia @SimranKodesia]

The Lift Off Moment is here and now! Massive congratulations @RajanAnandan Lift-Off Nation is out in the world 🚀😊

[Simran Kodesia @SimranKodesia]

Very few people can bring together the worlds of capital, policymaking and R&D quite like Rajan Anandan.

What makes Lift Off Nation so special is the perspective Rajan brings to what it will take to build a truly ambitious innovation ecosystem, and how these three forces can come together to help India lift off.

Super stoked for the world to finally read Lift Off Nation by @RajanAnandan and @TheSaurabhSri . 🚀

And feeling incredibly grateful to have been among the first few people to read it ahead of the launch.

Can’t wait for this conversation to take off

[Rajan Anandan @RajanAnandan]

Ready. Lift-Off Nation

[Shailendra J Singh @sjs_day1]

Every bull cycle founders and VC’s quickly grow an ego 🤷‍♂️

(Perceived) success amplifies self belief and over confidence

Every bear cycle humility returns 🙌🏻

Venture markets are highly cyclical. People forget each cycle :)

Many people agree but believe this doesn’t apply to them 😅

[Simran Kodesia @SimranKodesia]

Excited to see our fearless leader @sjs_day1 take the stage at TechCrunch Disrupt in San Francisco.

He’ll be sharing his perspective on the forces shaping the next generation of startups, founders and technology, and what it takes to build enduring companies in this rapidly evolving landscape.

If you’re at Disrupt, don’t miss this one. 🚀

[Peak XV Partners @peakxvpartners]

What will it take to raise a Series A in the next funding cycle?

We’re really looking forward to @TechCrunch Disrupt next week in San Francisco, where some of the world’s most ambitious founders, investors and builders will come together to exchange ideas and explore what’s next! 🚀

Our Managing Director, Shailendra Singh (@sjs_day1), will join Jahanvi Sardana (@jahanvisardana9) of Index Ventures and Janelle Teng Wade (@NextBigTeng) of Bessemer Venture Partners for a conversation on “The Series A in 2027.”

What will it take to raise a Series A next year? From the metrics that matter to evolving fundraising playbooks, the panel will explore what founders need to know as they prepare for their next stage of growth.

If you’re an early-stage founder attending Disrupt, join us at the Builders Stage on 14th October, 9:30–10:10 AM PT. ✨
