Kloseby
Not to be punny, but tech startup Kloseby specializes in proximity. It’s just raised US$100,000 in seed funding from an undisclosed investor.
The funding will be split between user acquisition and merchant/client acquisition.
Founded this year by Rahul Sindhu and IIM-Kozhikode alum Gaurav Garg, Kloseby offers deals to users through its app. The deals depend on what stores are nearest the user.
Kloseby is present in Pune and Bangalore and downloadable from Google Play. Users may also sign up for the iOS app, which will be released soon, on the startup’s website.
