QwikBuild Secures $2.3 Mn to Expand Enterprise AI Operations

Alongside the funding announcement on October 28, 2026, QwikBuild also announced a joint venture with publicly listed Japanese company Globalway to enter Japan’s enterprise software market. The venture is expected to become operational by the end of 2026.

QwikBuild's Enterprise AI Platform

QwikBuild provides an enterprise AI platform that helps businesses build custom software applications and AI agents to manage their operations. The platform aims to reduce software development time, enabling businesses to build applications in days rather than months.

Companies can use QwikBuild to replace legacy systems, extend existing enterprise tools such as SAP and Salesforce, or develop new applications based on their business requirements. Its AI agents also help automate workflows and modernise business operations.

Funding Details

The $2.3 million pre-seed round included participation from Globalway Inc., Blume Ventures, DeVC and Marsshot. Angel investors Lalit Keshre, founder of Groww, and Ankit Nagori, founder of Cure.fit, also backed the round.

QwikBuild has not disclosed its valuation or total funding raised to date.

The funding comes alongside the company's partnership with Globalway, which will help introduce its enterprise AI platform to Japanese businesses through Globalway's existing and prospective customer network.

How QwikBuild Plans to Use the Funding

QwikBuild plans to use the fresh capital to strengthen its market expansion strategy and build its presence in international markets.

Key priorities include establishing a team in the US, expanding operations across Southeast Asia and increasing its enterprise customer base. The company also aims to help more businesses adopt AI-powered software development and workflow automation.

QwikBuild's Business Growth

QwikBuild was founded by Pradeep Ayyagari, who previously worked at companies including Flipkart, Swiggy and Slice.

The platform combines custom software development, enterprise integrations and AI-powered workflow automation. It is designed to help business teams build and modify applications as their operational needs change, reducing their dependence on engineering teams for routine software updates.

According to the company, QwikBuild serves more than 100 enterprises across India, Southeast Asia, the US and Dubai. Its customers include an electronics component exporter that uses the platform to manage shipment and supply-chain operations through software and AI agents.

Leadership Comments

“We have been working together with Globalway to develop 'QwikBuild' into a service that meets the demands of the enterprise market, including Japan.

Expansion into Japan and Other Markets

QwikBuild's joint venture with Globalway is expected to support its entry into Japan's enterprise software market by the end of 2026. Through the partnership, the company plans to reach Globalway's existing and prospective enterprise customers.
