Urban renting-focused proptech startup Flent has raised INR 6.5 Cr in a pre-seed funding round led by WEH Ventures.
The round also saw participation from 2 AM Ventures, Pareto Holdings and a host of angel investors, including Atlassian’s senior vice president Sanchan S Saxena, Capillary Technologies founder Aneesh Reddy, Dr. Vaidya founder Arjun Vaidya, YourStory founder Shradha Sharma and Ivy Homes founder Abhilash N.
The Bengaluru-based startup plans to use the fresh capital to expand its core team and develop India’s first full stack renting platform.
Founded by Shail Daswani, Mayank Lalwani and Rishabh Agnihotri in October last year, Flent offers a product called Flent Reserve, which allows customers to move into fully furnished homes within 15 days of signing up, with zero brokerage and minimal deposit.
“People compromise on so many things when it comes to renting—settling for outdated and unfurnished homes, hefty deposits, subpar brokers, and one-sided terms. We believe that in today’s world, compromise isn’t an option, especially for the new generation. At Flent, we’re making renting as simple as booking an Uber,” Daswani said.
