Heliware, a deep-tech startup delivering advanced geospatial intelligence and 3D analytics, has raised Rs 4.5 Crore in a bridge round led by Inflection Point Ventures. The funds will support international market expansion through strategic partnerships, talent acquisition, and operational setup across key global geographies, while strengthening working capital for ongoing and future projects.

Heliware is the first Indian company to have developed a comprehensive, high-resolution 3D terrain model of the entire country, integrated with advanced analytics such as flood simulation, line-of-sight analysis, and predictive spatial modeling. The company enables analysis and application development five times faster and at half the cost. With its affordability, flexibility, and end-to-end solutions, Heliware  offers a unified geospatial intelligence solution for industries reliant on location data.
