Its largest themes are Healthcare & Biotech (17%), Fintech (13%) and AI & Machine Learning (13%). 92% of its companies are based in India. It invests most often alongside AJVC, All In Capital and Btomorrow Ventures.
Counts come from funding rounds that name PedalStart, complete from mid-2025: earlier rounds appear only when they were reported later. Round amounts and full round histories are on Fundup AI.
Round figures show recent activity, not PedalStart's whole history. Rounds on record name 6 companies; its own site lists 16. Funding rounds are complete from mid-2025, so counts and the yearly trend undercount a firm that invested before then. The portfolio, themes and places come from its own site and are not affected.

Rates come from what VCinfo has observed since observation_start. Firms tend to remove companies that closed, so early rates understate reality. A company leaving a portfolio page does not mean it closed or exited. An unreachable site means our checks failed, nothing more.
