Bikry app (by Bizrise Technologies), an all-in-one platform to take business online, has raised $1.3 million funding led by YCombinator, the Silicon Valley-based startup accelerator, along with participation from the founders of Angelist, Cabra VC, Twitch.TV, RazorPay, and Sumon Sadhu. Abhishek Bhayana, Founder of Bikry app said, “Getting every business online, especially during this time of the pandemic, is one of the critical steps we can take together not just to stay competitive but also to foster strong engagement and communication with your large customer base. We are glad to be able to bring direct-to-customer internet channels to neighbourhood shops and services that are not just seeking to emerge from this pandemic crisis but now see us as a long-term credible partner to drive strong business growth.” “We aim to save small businesses from the clutches of online aggregators and their high commissions. During this pandemic, we have seen an incredible increase of 300 percent in our unique customer base,” Abhishek further added.
Bikri App was developed in 2019 by Himanshu Garg and Abhishek Bhayana. It aims to provide assistance to entrepreneurs and small business owners who want to create an internet business by starting them off with a free website. The app claims to have boarded 50,000+ businesses across India. It now aims to serve over 1 million businesses by the end of 2021. Moreover, Bikry’s smart catalogue builder with 5 lakh products enables kirana stores, medical shops, mom and pop stores, restaurants, at home working ladies, and many others to create and maintain a professional-looking product catalogue that they share with their customers through WhatsApp and SMS with just a link.
