Qoruz, a startup focused on data-driven influencer marketing, has raised $500,000 in pre-Series A funding led by The Chennai Angels.
The funding round, part of a larger $1 million investment, includes participation from senior marketing professionals, agency executives, and startup founders in the advertising and media industry.
Qoruz operates as a creator intelligence and collaboration platform, helping brands work with social media influencers using AI and structured data. The Bengaluru-based startup has worked with over 1,000 brands like Amazon, Coca-Cola, and L’Oréal.
The funding will be used to enhance Qoruz's AI capabilities, expand into new market verticals, and support international growth in regions like the Middle East and Southeast Asia. The CEO aims to build an ecosystem for the creator economy, emphasizing operational precision over instinct.
