Kalpi Secures Funding for Innovative Investing Solutions

Kalpi, a fintech startup from Hyderabad, has successfully raised Rs 3.75 crore during its seed funding round, led by Rainmatter Capital. This new investment is aimed at bolstering the team, acquiring critical datasets, enhancing product features, and broadening distribution in both retail and institutional markets.

What is Kalpi?

Established in 2025 by Ashwar Gupta, Kalpi is developing a rule-based systematic investing platform tailored for both retail and institutional investors. Users can create, backtest, automate, and execute quantitative investment strategies in equities, ETFs, and mutual funds through the platform.

Product Offerings

Kalpi provides two distinct products: Kalpi.ai for retail investors and KalpiQuant.com for institutional clients, including PMS firms, AIFs, RIAs, brokers, and family offices. The retail platform enables users to build stock baskets, evaluate portfolios, and invest seamlessly through broker integrations.

The institutional platform offers advanced functionalities such as portfolio optimisation, backtesting, factor analysis, and risk attribution. This institutional-grade quant infrastructure, which typically costs hedge funds anywhere from Rs 1–2 crore to develop, is now accessible via Kalpi’s platform.
