Zoppler Systems raises Rs 6.5 crore led by Finvolve, India Accelerator; defence startup to scale deployments, boost Edge AI platform

Zoppler Systems, a Bengaluru-based dual-use technology startup, has successfully raised ₹6.5 crore in a funding round co-led by Finvolve and India Accelerator. The startup plans to utilize this capital to accelerate product development and enhance field validation of its indigenous technologies.¹²

Zoppler specializes in developing indigenous radio frequency (RF) sensing products and a vendor-agnostic decision and autonomy platform. This platform is designed to integrate sensing, intelligence, and response capabilities across both localized and networked deployments, making it suitable for airborne, ground, and naval systems. The startup is also exploring potential future applications in space.³⁴

The platform employs Edge AI and an open architecture, allowing defense organizations to enhance their existing systems with new sensing and decision-making capabilities without the need to replace legacy infrastructure, where compatibility allows. This feature supports networked autonomy, enabling multiple assets to share intelligence and coordinate mission-critical responses across various operational environments.⁵⁶⁷

Beyond defense, Zoppler aims to apply its technology in critical infrastructure sectors such as ports, airports, energy facilities, and logistics operations. The startup believes its systems can significantly improve operations in these areas by making them smarter and faster, providing a practical upgrade path for organizations looking to enhance their existing systems without complete replacements.
