I’ve been told there are only a handful of consumer tech companies globally that have crossed $100M at speed. Not just foundation models, but actual products people love and use.
Perplexity. ElevenLabs. Replit. Suno. Gamma.
And now, an India-born startup is on that path: Emergent.
Founded by twin brothers Mukund Jha (ex-Dunzo CTO) and Madhav Jha (ex-Amazon AI), Emergent is an AI-native “”vibe coding”” platform that lets anyone build production-ready web and mobile apps using just plain English.
AI isn’t just a layer here. The core of Emergent is a complex multi-agent system that acts as an autonomous engineering team—designing, building, and deploying apps end-to-end.
The market? The millions of non-technical founders and creators globally who have ideas but were previously blocked by code.
What makes Emergent special isn’t just their recent funding round or their user base of millions across 190+ countries. It’s that an Indian team is building a global AI product that cuts through the noise with sheer speed and scale.
This isn’t luck. It’s timing met with taste, velocity, and courage. It feels like a massive signal for the #ProductNation dream.
Emergent is quietly rewriting the playbook for India’s tech ecosystem. We are incredibly excited to see many more such head-down, AI-native builders showcasing their work at the upcoming AIBoomi Annual in March.
Let’s celebrate the builders.
