Cognitive community investing.
India-focused Category I angel fund backing early-stage businesses across technology and consumer sectors.
Connect Now01 / The fund
Cogniphy describes itself as a SEBI-registered Category I angel fund for Indian founders. Its community model lets investors review opportunities and express interest in individual businesses. The public founder page welcomes pre-seed, seed and early-growth companies across sectors; the portfolio includes deep technology alongside consumer, healthcare and business-software companies.
The current homepage reports INR16.9 crore capital deployed and 176+ active investors. Deployed capital is not a typical cheque, assets under management or a verified final fund close. No current numerical founder-cheque range was found in the primary sources checked. An October 2023 manager blog described a $12.5M fund plus a $12.5M greenshoe; that dated marketing statement is not presented here as a current closed corpus.
The manager currently labels its portfolio page 40 companies and its homepage 39+. The grid contains numbered repeats of CoRover, Redinent, Immersive Labz, DusMinute, Travvir and SupplyNote. Combining those repeated names yields 33 distinct company identities. The original labels are preserved in relevant company notes. This is a count of current manager-listed names, not a claim of 33 active investments or a complete lifetime portfolio.

Thirty-three distinct company names from the manager's 40-row grid. Numbered repeat labels are combined rather than counted as separate companies. DTT's sectors distinguish robots, drones and industrial vision from ordinary software AI. Medical education, clinical services and consumer brands remain in Others. Current holding status is not assumed from a live website. Unverified logos use a clearly labelled text substitute.

Built a hyperlocal retail model with grocery stores inside residential communities and delivery to residents. Star Localmart acquired the business in September 2025; that does not establish Cogniphy’s own realised investment return.

Fund Manager and Investor
Personal profile identifies him with Cogniphy and describes his role as fund manager and investor.
LinkedIn profile ↗Two publicly verified fund-manager profiles. The official current site does not publish a full team directory, so this is not a claim that the entire investment team has only two people. Relations-only staff, a former investment analyst, and platform investors without a proven investment-decision remit are not treated as current investment staff.
Official fund website ↗04 / Fund network
No named LP relationship met the full primary-source verification standard in this check. The manager reports 176+ active investors, but that is not a public named LP roster. Personal-profile and directory leads were not converted into confirmed commitments without sufficient source detail. Portfolio co-investors, fund managers and community investors are not automatically interchangeable with LPs.
Public information gap
This does not mean that the fund has no LPs. Names, commitment amounts and current participation should not be inferred from anonymous testimonials or third-party contact lists.
Official published investor context ↗Research checked 2 November 2026. Public statements are not investment advice or confirmation of an available allocation.
