Bhindi AI Raises $4M Pre-Seed Funding to Tackle AI Fatigue with Agentic Technology

As artificial intelligence tools become more deeply embedded in daily work routines, a new challenge is emerging — AI fatigue. While these tools promise efficiency, their dependency on constant user input is leading to digital burnout for many. A new startup, Bhindi.io, is trying to address that very problem.

The company has just raised $4 million in a pre-seed funding round, led by Cyber Fund, to build what it calls a unified agentic platform. The goal: shift AI interaction from text-to-action to intent-to-action, using autonomous agents that work in the background to complete tasks.

Bhindi.Ai Funding

According to estimates, over 378 million people use AI tools globally. However, as the pace of work accelerates, many are reporting mental exhaustion caused by the constant need to prompt, correct, and oversee these technologies.

Bhindi's proposition is to reduce that friction. Instead of requiring real-time interaction, the platform allows users to set up background agents that can operate independently. These agents can execute workflows, monitor tasks, and even manage communications — without the need for manual intervention.

In essence, the startup is trying to give users a break from micromanagement, letting AI do more of the actual work — autonomously.

From Internal Project to Early Traction

Interestingly, Bhindi didn’t begin as a public product. It was initially developed as an internal tool and later expanded after early trials showed promising user engagement.

Within months of opening access, the platform recorded:

• Over 333,000 messages

• Across 21,913 conversations

• Resulting in 52,330 autonomous agent executions

Its user base has crossed 5,000, with a significant presence in both India and the US, each accounting for roughly 40% of users.

Bhindi’s team says the platform has moved beyond basic productivity tasks. Users are applying it across various domains including crypto, fintech, marketing, development, and content workflows.

How It Works: Autonomous Background Agents

At the core of Bhindi is the idea of agentic AI — a system where users specify an intent or outcome, and the platform takes over the execution. Users don’t have to keep prompting; once a task is set, the agent monitors, acts, and updates as needed.

Some current use-cases include:

• Crypto Portfolio Management: Integration with CoinDCX to track portfolio performance and deliver market insights via Gmail.

• Developer Assistance: Reviewing GitHub pull requests, flagging bugs, and posting intelligent suggestions through AI-driven code interpretation.

• Fintech Operations: Chat-based interface for placing stock trades, checking prices, and managing portfolios.

• Influencer Outreach: Automating creator discovery, data extraction, and email campaigns via integration with Google Sheets and Gmail.

The platform currently offers over 300+ AI agents, all accessible through a single interface, eliminating the need to switch between different apps or tools.

The Founder’s Track Record in Tech

Bhindi is led by Sowmay Jain, a 27-year-old entrepreneur with a history of building products at the intersection of AI and blockchain. He previously co-founded Instadapp and Fluid.io, the latter managing over $2 billion in DeFi assets.

His past ventures have drawn attention from prominent backers including Naval Ravikant, Pantera Capital, Coinbase Ventures, and Balaji Srinivasan. The latest round for Bhindi was also led by Cyber Fund, which had supported Jain’s earlier projects.

Bhindi is headquartered in Singapore, but its development and operations teams are based in India, giving it proximity to a growing tech talent pool and one of the world’s largest digital user bases.

Not Just a Tool, But a Changing Interface

While Bhindi is still early in its lifecycle, the company positions itself as a new kind of interface between humans and AI. Rather than adding to the noise of multiple productivity tools, its ambition is to consolidate workflows into a seamless, agent-driven system.

The idea of “background execution” — where AI completes tasks while users are away — could potentially appeal to a growing segment of digital professionals seeking better work-life balance and reduced screen fatigue.

As AI continues to evolve, Bhindi’s approach suggests a shift in thinking: from AI as an assistant waiting for prompts, to AI as a co-worker capable of autonomous execution.
