Scoutflo, a next-generation DevOps AI platform, has raised INR
1.4 crore in a pre-seed funding round led by 100X.VC, with participation from strategic
investors Arjun Pillai and Prasanna Venkatesan. The funding will be used to enhance
Scoutflo’s AI-driven deployment automation, debugging, and issue resolution, while
strengthening security and compliance for every deployment.
Scoutflo was founded to solve critical DevOps bottlenecks, helping developers deploy
code independently, reducing dependency on small DevOps teams, and cutting
deployment delays. With just one DevOps engineer for every 20 developers, enterprises
lose up to 30% in productivity due to inefficiencies. Scoutflo’s AI-powered automation
solves this by providing easy-to-use tools for smooth, secure, and cost-effective
deployments across AWS, GCP, Azure, and Civo Cloud.
Commenting on the funding, Kalpesh Bhalekar, Co-founder & CEO of Scoutflo,
said, “The traditional DevOps model struggles to keep up with modern AI-driven
software development. Developers need autonomy, while enterprises require security
and efficiency. Scoutflo acts as an AI-powered DevOps expert in every team, simplifying
deployments while ensuring compliance and security.”
Vedant Vyawahare, Co-founder & CTO, added, “Our goal is not just automation but
intelligent decision-making. Scoutflo’s AI understands the nuances of infrastructure
and optimizes deployments to prevent bottlenecks, control costs, and ensure
scalability. We are building a future where developers can focus on innovation while AI
handles the complexities of DevOps.”
Prasanna Venkatesan, ex-CTO, ZoomInfo India, said, “Having led engineering teams,
I’ve seen firsthand how deployment bottlenecks drain productivity and delay innovation.
Developers want to move fast, but they’re often stuck waiting for DevOps support.
Scoutflo changes this dynamic, giving teams the autonomy to deploy confidently while
ensuring security and cost efficiency.”
Scoutflo will use this funding to accelerate the adoption of AI-powered DevOps. The
company will also work toward expanding its solutions across new markets and
building strategic partnerships to drive growth and adoption.
