No-code DevOps platform Humalect raises $750K in seed round led by StartupXseed Ventures

Bangalore-based Humalect, a no-code platform helping organizations automate DevOps, has raised US$750,000 (approx Rs 5.96 crore) in a seed funding round led by early-stage investment firm StartupXseed Ventures.

DevOps is the combination of practices and tools that increases an organization’s ability to deliver software and services at high velocity. DevOps is a must-have for the scalability of any organization. However, organizations usually avoid DevOps in the early days due to the complexity, cost, and time involved.

Humalect said it is trying to fill this gap by automating end-to-end DevOps and getting it running in less than 30 minutes. “Goal of DevOps engineering is to improve developer productivity, but it never happens as intended. Most companies spend precious developer hours managing and maintaining this behemoth process," said Rajesh Tilwani.

The startup enables organizations to be Kubernetes ready from their early days. This helps organizations save on their engineering efforts and focus on business goals by reducing the requirements of managing infrastructure. It also helps organizations lower cloud bills by right-sizing infrastructure.

"Typically, development teams spend at least 25% of their time setting up the cloud and managing the infrastructure, which could be utilized to build and launch their products in the market. That is why we built Humalect, focused on automation, flexibility, and the highest security standards for development teams, product teams, and business owners alike," Rajesh added.

Founded by Rajesh Tilwani (BITS Pilani alumni) and Vishal Saugat (IIT Bombay), The startup said it will utilize the raised capital to build the team efficiently and extend product features.

Vishal Saugat said, “Humalect would save developer team’s time spent on cloud management by 100 folds and it can bootstrap infrastructure, pipelines and deployment in minutes. It fits any tech stack without downtime, and does not impose any lock-in or migration debts. With the help of investments raised, we aim to build further and strengthen our team and extend our product features.”

Speaking about the Investment, Mr. Ravi Thakur, Co-founding Partner at StartupXseed, said, ”We know how complex the DevOps function is in organizations, and we spotted Rajesh and Vishal at the right time to solve that problem. We are bullish on their growth plans and are putting in our best efforts to make it happen.”

"The challenges organizations face with DevOps are many. Every company avoids DevOps in the early days, but after an untoward incident like a security breach or downtime, DevOps becomes a reactive priority," the company said in a statement.

The process of set-up is iterative and sometimes even takes months to complete. DevOps is important, and Humalect aims to empower organizations to scale and deploy their products across multiple cloud providers with their quick set-up DevOps platform, it said.
