MapmyIndia Backed KOGO Unveils Online AI Store For SMEs

Bengaluru-based startup KOGO AI has rolled out an online AI store to offer   advanced AI agents, tools and plugins for businesses across various sectors.

According to the company, the AI store will help developers, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and large system integrators to build, deploy and manage their own AI agents.

Founded in 2018 by Raj K Gopalakrishnan and Praveer Kochhar, KOGO AI is building a customisable AI operating system, KOGO OS, which can build, manage, and deploy various AI agents across industries. 

With this launch, the startup aims to make it the world’s largest AI store by 2025. 

“With a diverse range of AI agents and ready to deploy tools along with the opportunity for developers to create custom AI agents and publish them on the store, we are empowering businesses to easily deploy AI to significantly enhance their operations, increase productivity, and ultimately drive growth,” said Gopalakrishnan.

For developers, the store will offer a platform to customise and sell their own AI agents and custom workflows to offer an array of solutions to businesses. 

For businesses, the AI store will serve multiple options to compare and use the most suitable AI solutions as per their specific business needs. It caters to business across sectors including travel, healthcare, finance, retail and law among others. 

The services on the store will be available with a pay per use model wherein business will pay for the usage of AI agents and tools. The users can recharge their wallet at any time to use the services, the statement added. 

KOGO AI has started as an AI-based travel expert platform and now extended to AI offerings with KOGO OS, a low-code platform to allow businesses to build their own AI agents. 

The startup in 2022 secured an INR 10 Cr funding from MapmyIndia for a 26.37% stake. The infusion helped KOGO get access to MapmyIndia’s mapping technology Mappls.
