Matiks raises $10M in pre-Series A round led by General Catalyst

Bengaluru-based social gaming platform Matiks has raised $10 million in a pre-Series A funding round led by General Catalyst. The round also saw participation from entrepreneur Ronnie Screwvala and existing investors Info Edge Ventures, Tanglin Venture Partners, and Untitled Ventures.

According to a statement by the company, the fresh capital will be used to expand internationally, develop new games and social experiences, and launch an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered game creation platform that will enable users to build and publish games without writing code.

Founded in 2024, Matiks develops games centred on mathematics, memory, logic and puzzles, combining competitive gameplay with social features.

In September 2026, 2.2 million people played 48 million games on the platform. Its daily active users have more than doubled since June to over 300,000, with early engagement emerging in markets including Japan, the US and South Korea, the compamy said.

“Over the last decade, we have made it incredibly easy to consume content but have done far less to make using our brains equally entertaining. We started Matiks with a simple belief: using your brain can be just as fun and addictive as any other form of entertainment," said Sudhanshu Bhatia, co-founder and chief executive officer of Matiks.

"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. With AI, we want anyone, anywhere in the world, to create a brain game that millions can play.
