Binny Bansal backs ShopOS with $20 million to build AI engine for global online brands

Flipkart cofounder Binny Bansal has invested $20 million in ShopOS, a startup building an AI-operating system aimed at simplifying and scaling ecommerce operations for brands. The round was led by Bansal’s venture fund Three State Ventures.

ShopOS was founded by Sai Krishna V K and Ajay P V, who earlier built Scapic, an AI/AR commerce platform acquired by Flipkart in 2020. The duo later headed Flipkart Labs, which focused on deep tech pilots inside the ecommerce major. They are joined by Karan Sonawala, another Flipkart alumnus who led immersive and visual AI features at the Walmart-owned company.
