Real-time social networking app Currently has raised $1 million in a funding round led by Aarvi Family Office LLP, with participation from LJ Knowledge Foundation, Dhruv Patel, Pratik Patel, Neerav Dad, Arpit Patel, Priyank Parmar, and other investors and family offices.
The newly raised capital will be used to introduce new real-time features, enhance the platform’s technology, expand its engineering and design teams, and grow city-based communities and brand collaborations, the company said.
Founded in 2023 by Mitesh Shethwala, Currently is a real-time moment-sharing social app that lets users discover what others are doing right now — fostering authentic connections, conversations, and local interactions.
The platform emphasizes spontaneity and genuineness, aiming to reshape how people share their everyday lives online.
Currently features Live Map, Authentic Status Sharing, and Business Check-Ins, positioning itself as India’s first real-time people network.
With this funding, the startup plans to expand its footprint across major Indian cities, enhance user participation, and forge partnerships that bridge online connections with real-world experiences.
