- Secures $2.5 Million seed round led by Chiratae Ventures
- Plans to enhance its diskless data lake, R&D, and certifications
- Expanding operations in India and the U.S. while growing its team
CtrlB, a unified data platform startup, has raised $2.5 million in a seed funding round led by Chiratae Ventures. The round also saw participation from Equirus, InnovateX Fund, Campus Fund, and Point One Capital. The company plans to use the funds to scale its diskless data lake platform, accelerate research and development, file patents for its indexing and compression technologies, and obtain SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications.
Founded in 2023 by Adarsh Srivastava, CtrlB offers a single observability engine that brings together logs, metrics, traces, and security events on top of cloud object storage. Its platform uses one-touch ingestion with fast indexing and compression to lower storage costs and improve how long enterprises can retain critical telemetry data.
The company will expand operations across India and the United States and increase its team to 50-60 members across distributed systems, DevOps, solution architecture, and sales. CtrlB also plans to strengthen partnerships within the cloud and DevOps ecosystem, build customer success capabilities, and drive faster enterprise adoption.
Over the next 18 months, CtrlB aims to onboard more than 50 enterprise customers across sectors such as logistics, fintech, ecommerce, and SaaS. It also plans to expand into adjacent segments, including application performance monitoring (APM) and log analytics.
