Indian startup Demoverse has raised $600K in a pre-seed round led by Lumikai, which invested $500K through its Pixels program. Angel investors and UAE deep-tech company Marlan also participated.
Founded in early 2026, Demoverse is building an AI-powered platform that lets brands involve consumers in product creation from the earliest stages. Users can help test designs and concepts, giving companies feedback before they commit to production.
The startup generates revenue through brand-funded product campaigns, commerce on its platform, and paid subscriptions or participation in larger design challenges.
Fashion is Demoverse’s initial focus, with plans to expand into beauty, interior design and other physical-product categories, including cars and buildings.
According to the announcement, the new funding will support the growth of its designer community, improvements to its digital product, preparations for entering the US market and partnerships with international brands.
