$450,000 (around Rs 3.7 crore) from prominent investors such as On Deck and Village Global.
"With her clarity, passion, and product vision, she secured initial funding from well-known investment firms," highlighting her entrepreneurial skills despite her young age.
Delv.AI’s valuation at Rs 100 crore underscores the growing impact of youth-led innovation in the AI sector, marking Pranjali as a notable young CEO in the global tech ecosystem.
This achievement not only reflects her technical expertise but also her leadership and vision in leveraging AI to transform academic research.
