Matiks Bags $10 Mn To Take Its Puzzle Gaming Platform Global

Social gaming platform Matiks has raised $10 Mn (₹95.1 Cr) in its Pre-Series A funding round led by General Catalyst. 

The round also saw participation from upGrad founder Ronnie Screwvala as well as existing backers such as Info Edge Ventures, Tanglin Venture Partners and Untitled Ventures.

In a statement, the startup said that it plans to utilise the fresh capital to expand its global footprint and invest in new games and social experiences. The fresh funding will also be used to deepen investments in engineering, AI, product, design and growth. 

A chunk of the capital will also be utilised to build an AI-powered engine, which will enable users to build and publish their own social games without writing code. Going forward, it has also set its eyes on scaling creator partnerships, global distribution and player community.

“… We started Matiks with a simple belief: using your brain can be just as fun and addictive as any other form of entertainment. Our ambition is to make mind sports as culturally relevant as physical sports and esports – giving mental athletes, puzzlers, and competitive players the visibility, communities, and recognition they deserve…,” said Matiks cofounder and CEO Sudhanshu Bhatia.

Founded in 2024 by Bhatia, Mohan Kumar and Sushant Timmapur, Matiks is an esports platform that allows users to play social games spanning mathematics, memory, logic and puzzles. It also allows users to compete with each other. 

8 Cr games on its platform as of September 2026. Matiks also claimed that its daily active users currently hover around 3 Lakh, with early engagement also emerging from international markets such as Japan, the US and South Korea.
