About CynLr Robotics

“CynLr is solving a 4-decade long unmet need in the fast-growing industrial robotics space. With their intelligent Vision Stack for robots, they solve a myriad of challenges in hyper-automating manufacturing and warehouse space. As a firm believer in the deep tech space, we are excited to support CynLr in building intelligent learning robots that will further enable the creation of micro-factories and ultimately, universal factories,” says Sheetal Bahl, managing partner at growX Ventures.

Founded in 2019 by Nikhil Ramaswamy and Gokul NA, CynLr automates the manual labour involved in the manufacturing processes. The startup intends to simplify manufacturing through its visual robots or object computers, just as the computers simplified data processing.

Previous Funding of CynLr Robotics

In 2019, CynLr raised INR 5.5 Cr in a seed funding round. The investment came in from Speciale Invest, Arali Ventures, growX ventures, CIIE Initiatives and Dr. Vijay Kedia. Then, the funds were deployed towards research and development as well as to drive the adoption of the product.

In April 2021, CynLr was also a part of an accelerator program led by India DeepTech (IDT). The accelerator programme helped its cohort participants get validation of their business ideas and understand the market better. However, it did not offer any equity or grants to the cohort participants.
