Equal, a Hyderabad-based startup, aims to simplify financial data sharing processes for individuals, SMEs, and financial institutions.
Founded in 2022 by Keshav Reddy and Rajeev Ranjan, Equal focuses on areas like KYC, fraud prevention, income validation, and compliance.
The startup provides identity verification and consent-driven financial data sharing solutions to enhance accessibility and drive financial inclusion.
Equal's products include the KYC Aggregator and the Account Aggregator, which streamline customer onboarding and enable secure data sharing.
The platform ensures privacy, security, and compliance by integrating with over 50 ID databases and 4,000+ API providers.
Krishna Prasad joined as a co-founder in 2024 to contribute expertise in technology and data security, further strengthening Equal's offerings.
The company's technology encrypts, normalizes, and intelligently routes data for efficient identity verification and financial information sharing.
Equal's acquisition of OneMoney enhances consent-driven financial data sharing, emphasizing user control over personal data.
With clients like WeWork, Larsen & Toubro, and TVS, Equal follows a per-transaction pricing model and has processed millions of data transactions monthly.
Having raised $10 million in a Series A round led by Prosus Ventures, Equal plans to expand into insurance, banking, and AI-driven risk assessment by June 2025.
