Speedioo will use the funding to build an AI-native technology stack, expand into new cities, strengthen OEM partnerships, and scale its dealer and retail network.

Pune-based consumer-tech startup Speedioo has raised ₹10 crore in a seed funding round led by Atomic Capital, marking the company’s first institutional investment. The funding will support the development of an AI-native technology platform, expansion into new markets, strengthening of OEM partnerships, and growth of its dealer and retail network across India.

Founded by former CredR and Rentomojo executives Sagar Potphode and Ajit Deshmukh, Speedioo operates in India’s rapidly growing used two-wheeler market. The company is focused on creating a technology-driven, omnichannel platform that improves transparency, accessibility, and trust for consumers buying pre-owned motorcycles and scooters.

The fresh capital will be deployed toward building an end-to-end AI-enabled operating system that powers key business functions, including vehicle sourcing, price discovery, vehicle evaluation, inventory management, and sales. The company plans to leverage AI technologies to improve efficiency across its entire value chain.

As part of its expansion strategy, Speedioo plans to enter three to four key demand centers while scaling its retail presence through a franchise-led model. The company also intends to expand its leadership team and invest in strengthening supply chain and operational infrastructure.

Speedioo has reported significant growth over the past year. The startup recorded more than 5X topline growth during the last 12 months while remaining EBITDA-positive and cashflow-positive. The company has crossed ₹30 crore in gross merchandise value (GMV) and sold more than 4,000 vehicles during the period.

Currently, Speedioo works with over 200 active dealer partners across Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Pune. The company plans to increase this network tenfold over the next year as it expands into additional markets.

Commenting on the fundraise, Sagar Potphode, Co-Founder and CEO of Speedioo, said the company aims to build a trusted mobility brand for India’s next generation of consumers. He noted that while two-wheelers remain a critical means of livelihood and personal mobility for millions of Indians, the used vehicle market continues to face challenges around trust, transparency, and customer experience.

Speedioo is also seeing growing demand for premium used vehicles, reflecting broader consumer trends toward premiumization. In addition, the company has established strategic partnerships with leading electric vehicle brands for exchange programs and plans to further expand its presence in the emerging EV resale segment.

Atomic Capital said its investment thesis is driven by the size of the opportunity in India’s used two-wheeler market, which is estimated at nearly $28 billion and is approximately 1.5 times larger than the new two-wheeler market by volume. Despite the market’s scale, more than 95% remains unorganized, leaving significant room for technology-enabled platforms to build consumer trust and market leadership.

Apoorv Gautam, Founder and Managing Partner at Atomic Capital, said the firm was impressed by Speedioo’s capital-efficient approach, profitability, and strong unit economics. He added that the founders have built the business sustainably while maintaining growth, making it well-positioned to capitalize on changing consumer preferences and increasing demand for organized used vehicle platforms.

Looking ahead, Speedioo aims to surpass ₹100 crore in annual recurring revenue (ARR) within the next 12 to 18 months. The company plans to diversify sourcing channels, deepen dealer penetration, strengthen OEM relationships, introduce financing and warranty products, and expand into additional Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, and Tier 4 cities.

As part of its channel expansion strategy, the startup plans to open new retail stores in existing markets and enter two to three additional cities during the current financial year. Investments will also be directed toward customer experience, fulfillment infrastructure, and technology-driven operational capabilities.

With India’s used two-wheeler market continuing to grow and the sector remaining highly fragmented, Speedioo is positioning itself as an AI-powered platform seeking to bring greater efficiency, transparency, and scale to one of the country’s largest mobility categories.
