Earlier this week, San-Francisco and Bengaluru-based API platform startup announced it had secured $225 million in a Series D round, placing its valuation at $5.6 billion.
The round was led by existing investor New York-based global private equity and venture capital firm, Insight Partners, and joined by new investors Coatue, Battery Ventures, and BOND, along with existing investors CRV and Nexus Venture Partners.
In addition, DoorDash Product Leader Gokul Rajaram and Freshworks Founder Girish Mathrubootham also joined as individual investors. The company has now raised more than $430 million across four rounds.
Postman entered the unicorn club in June 2020 with a valuation of $2 billion during its Series C round of $150 million. The startup, which was founded in 2014, is one of the most valued SaaS unicorns from India. The company plans to use the Series D capital to expand its teams in the areas of sales, marketing, product, and engineering.
