New Delhi, London | 01 July 2026 — Enterprise AI infrastructure platform Digizene today made a Pre-Seed round funding announcement with investment from Odisha-born British entrepreneur Arun Kar. Alongside the investment, Arun Kar has joined Digizene as a Co-founder, providing the company with strategic guidance, global business experience, and international expansion expertise.
A well-known expert in building international tech ventures, Arun Kar has an estimated net worth of approximately US$145 million, according to published reports. His investment and participation represent a significant step forward in Digizene’s aim to develop one of the best AI-powered Trust Infrastructure platforms in the world.
Launched by Rinki Singh, Digizene is developing an AI-native Trust Infrastructure platform which will revolutionise enterprises’ ability to verify identities, businesses, financial information, compliance documents, documents, vendors, employees, vehicles and properties.
With its flagship product, DigiVerification, Digizene has brought together more than 200 verification APIs, artificial intelligence, workflow automation and conversational AI into a unified enterprise platform. Instead of simply using API integrations, DigiVerification provides businesses with the ability to complete their complicated verification processes via natural-language conversations with an AI assistant.
Using proprietary AI Verification Bot, enterprises can request to verify customers, companies, GST registrations, bank accounts, legal documents, properties or vendors. DigiVerification intelligently automates many verification processes, analysing responses in real-time and providing structured business intelligence, fraud prevention, compliance intelligence and AI-powered risk recommendations in seconds.
An important feature of the platform is the extensive Property Verification Stack, which provides financial institutions, legal organisations and property businesses with the ability to automatically verify ownership records, encumbrances, registry data, land records, mutation records, property taxes and legal due diligence in a single workflow process.
Currently, Digizene serves enterprise clients and partners in the areas of banking, NBFCs, fintech, insurance, healthcare, HR technology, manufacturing, logistics, automotive, education, telecom, retail, travel, real estate, enterprise SaaS and digital marketplaces. The platform is used to verify, automate, prevent risks and comply with regulations in onboarding, KYC, KYB, merchant onboarding, vendor due diligence, employee verification, fraud prevention, regulatory compliance, loan origination, claims processing and enterprise risk management.
As a part of its larger technology strategy, BharatEarns, Digizene’s embedded finance platform, will be operating within the Digizene ecosystem. With the combination of embedded finance, AI verification and enterprise workflow automation, Digizene is creating an integrated platform that will help organisations verify, onboard, lend and automate their customer journey through a single intelligent infrastructure.
The industry analysts predict that the markets of identity verification, digital identity, KYC, KYB, AML, fraud prevention and TrustTech will surpass the size of US$100 billion in the coming decade. These predictions are based on accelerating digital transformation, increasing regulation and adoption of enterprise AI. According to Digizene, AI native trust infrastructure will become the new technological layer for the businesses around the globe.
Rinki Singh, Founder & CEO of Digizene, stated:
“Verification is an essential element of every digital transaction. However, enterprises still need to handle fragmented solutions and multiple integrations. Our goal is to create a globally scalable AI-powered trust infrastructure in which businesses would be able to verify almost everything by simply communicating with an AI assistant. We want to build a smart enterprise platform to simplify the trust in the digital economy.”
Arun Kar, Co-founder of Digizene, stated:
“Artificial intelligence is revolutionising enterprise software. Trust infrastructure will become one of the most important layers of technology of the next decade. Digizene has created a cutting-edge AI-first platform that has enormous potential to succeed globally. I am pleased to join Digizene as an investor and a Co-founder as we embark upon building a world-class TrustTech company with global ambitions.”
With the rapid growth in India, Digizene will soon launch its operation in the United Kingdom as its first international market and then expand further into Europe, the Middle East and Southeast Asia with localised identity verification, business verification, compliance, AML and enterprise trust solutions.
Having successfully closed its Pre-Seed round of funding, the company is now gearing up for a much bigger institutional Seed funding round to accelerate its research in AI, grow its enterprise product portfolio and expand internationally.
Former Bureaucrat and Corporate Strategist Bhartendu Shandilya, an early investor and strategic mentor to Digizene, has played a key role in shaping the company’s vision and growth strategy. He believes AI-powered trust infrastructure presents a significant global opportunity for Indian technology companies.
