Bengaluru-based spacetech startup Xovian Aerospace has raised $2.5 million in a pre-seed funding round led by Piper Serica and TurboStart, with participation from Inflection Point Ventures (IPV) and Eaglewings Ventures.
The newly raised funds will be directed toward building AI-native radio frequency (RF) satellite infrastructure and facilitating space trials scheduled for later this year.
Founded in 2018 by Ankit Bhateja and Raghav Sharma, to redefine satellite signal intelligence, Xovian is building a constellation of RF nanosatellites that capture and decode dynamic signals—offering real-time intelligence far beyond traditional optical satellite systems.
These satellites are designed to serve key industries such as maritime, aviation, defence, oil & gas, and weather forecasting, through continuous RF data fused with AI-powered decision intelligence.

Xovian is gearing up for initial deployments in Southeast Asia and the Middle East, banking on its vertically integrated model to deliver high-precision, low-latency insights.
The company claims its platform offers up to six times greater data value per dollar than traditional satellite systems.
