PeerCheque

Miten and Aakrit are the visible investing principals and appear to make decisions jointly. Both are former internet founders and operators who scaled digital businesses before moving into early-stage investing. Their decisions are informed by direct operating experience rather than a traditional institutional investment committee.

Deal flow relies on the principals' repeat-founder networks and decade-long presence in India's internet sector. Several portfolio founders — including Brijraj Bhuptani and Puneet Arora — first contacted Miten and Aakrit based on prior working relationships, not inbound cold pitches. The firm describes itself as a partner long before a fundraise, often workshopping ideas with founders before a formal round is structured.

The firm explicitly invests at inception, often during the “-1 to 0” phase before a startup has a minimum viable product or formal revenue. Portfolio companies include Truva and Smallest.AI, both of which received capital pre-revenue and pre-product-market fit.

PeerCheque invests in Indian technology startups with unbounded market and roadmap potential, spanning developer tools (Onecode), consumer/quick-commerce (Boba Bhai), applied AI (Truva, Smallest.AI), and repeat-founder-led internet businesses more broadly. The public portfolio avoids hard exclusions but concentrates on software-centric models.
