 March,2023, Bangalore : Contract execution SaaS platform Doqfy has raised Rs 7.5 crore in a Pre Series A round. The Round has been led by Turbostart and Pentathlon VC. Other investors who participated in the round are Lead Angels, SilverNeedle VC, LetsVenture, Angel.co led by Archana Priyadarshini. Funds raised to be used for tech enhancements of the platform and business growth through building partnerships.

Aditya Padranki, Founder, Doqfy, says, “Compliances are one of major cost heads for companies and the costs go up as the companies grow in size. Another aspect is the complex nature of the compliances. There have been instances where companies are not even aware if they are in breach because for far too long compliances have been managed in a manual way with very little tech intervention. We see this as a large untapped opportunity. Our platform, which has undergone changes as we incorporated feedback from our customers and mentors, is now a full stack offering helping companies stay compliant and easing the burden of it to facilitate smooth business operations.”

Started in 2019 by Aditya Pandranki, Manjula Rao, Vilaas BV, Doqfy was launched to solve a mandatory compliance requirement for businesses in India. As the company worked towards PMF, the platform focused on tech for contract execution with eStamping and eSignatures that became an instant attraction for the enterprise customers. Over the last year, as the platform underwent significant tech enhancements, achieving a PMF and right price points, these changes have made Doqfy extremely relevant for the SMBs who have contracting requirements like creating contracts, negotiations, execution with e-stamping and e-signatures and milestone management.

Ganesh Raju, Founder, Turbostart, says, “We first came across Doqfy’s application for the first cohort of Turbostart in 2019. Given our background, we were acutely aware of the excessive amount of time, money and resources expended on legal compliance. Doqfy’s proposition stood out immediately amongst the other applicants. At Turbostart, our mission is to be enablers first and financiers next. Two years on, it has been extremely fulfilling to work closely with their team and witness the impact we’ve had on Doqfy’s journey. We’re thrilled to celebrate this milestone with them and look forward to being part of their continued growth and success.”

 

Doqfy has been profitable since the last 12 months clocking an ARR of Rs 6 crore. The Company works with marquee customers like HDFC Bank, Bajaj Finserv, Ujjivan Small Finance Bank, Axis Bank, DBS Bank, Xiaomi, Swiggy, Meesho, Unacademy and JLL, Colliers. The Company currently has a team strength of nearly 40 people.

We are excited to partner with the DOQFY team in rapidly scaling their business to its next orbit.”

Sushanto Mitra, CEO, Lead Angels, says “Legal documentation continues to be a bottleneck as the velocity of business transactions rises in the digital age. DOQFY is catering to such a quickly expanding industry that also requires a high level of legal assistance.”
