Earlier this month, Gupshup, the Silicon Valley-headquartered conversational messaging tech startup co-founded by IIT-Bombay alumni Beerud Sheth, raised $100 million in funding from Tiger Global at a valuation of $1.4 billion.

Gupshup’s last funding round was in 2011, and the startup, which has India as one of its major markets, closed 2020 with an annual revenue rate of around $150 million.

According to Gupshup, its API enables over 100,000 developers and businesses to build messaging and conversational experiences delivering over six billion messages per month across 30-plus messaging channels.

Gupshup will use this investment to scale its product and go-to-market initiatives worldwide.
