The statement added that SolRazr will have a unique allocation model for retail investors, leveraging non-fungible tokens (NFT) on Solana.

"Solana will power SolRazr to help projects raise capital at lightning speed, and to help investors contribute at negligible transaction costs,” co-founder Sreekanth Kalapur said.

Fleek Technologies

Subscription management startup Fleek Technologies on Tuesday said that it has raised $1 million in a seed round of funding led by Axilor.

Other investors in the round included RTP Global Ventures, Titan Capital and 9Unicorns Accelerator, angel investor Ramakant Sharma and his syndicate, as per a statement.

The subscription tracking and management platform solves for a need to consolidate every subscription on a single platform, as “there has been a seismic shift across categories from a transaction-based model to a subscription model.”

The Bengaluru-based startup plans to scale its user base to a six-digit number and enhance user experience using this funding round, the statement said, adding that they also plan to hire across technology, marketing and operation functions.

Fleek was founded by Aditya Uttaravalli and Arvind Eashwar in 2021.

The duo were part of online food delivery startup Swiggy’s strategy team in 2016 and carry a body of work that includes Swiggy Pop and Swiggy Super.

Fleek is currently available on the Google Play Store, and works on an invite-only model.

The team has completed beta testing of the product and is now available for users to sign-up and join the waitlist.
