Postudio, a cloud-based post-production software company, has secured $1 million in a pre-seed funding round led by Audacity Venture Capital, a VC firm specializing in media tech. Within just two years of its launch, the company has achieved annual recurring revenue (ARR) of $1 million and aims to double its revenue by 2025. This growth increases demand for remote collaboration and the platform’s focus on affordability and robust data security.
The newly raised funds will accelerate scaling efforts, enhance product development, and grow the team. Founded by media industry veterans Dhawal Gusain and Harish Prabhu, Postudio is transforming the post-production landscape with its web-based platform, offering creators unmatched flexibility, scalability, and cost-effectiveness.
Commenting on Postudio’s success and expansion plan, Dhawal Gusain, Co-founder of Postudio, said, “We’ve scaled quickly in the Indian enterprise segment in a very capital-efficient manner. In 2025, we plan to sustain this momentum and expand into the U.S. market in the second half of this year.”
Co-founder Harish Prabhu added, “At Postudio, our goal has always been to empower creative teams with tools that simplify and enhance their post-production workflows. Our platform supports key processes like virtual editing, real-time collaboration, and seamless camera-to-edit data transfer. We’re now doubling down on innovation, integrating cutting-edge AI and Gen AI workflows to redefine post-production. For instance, our AI-driven content localization tool, currently in beta testing with clients, has received promising feedback. With an ambitious roadmap for 2025, we’re excited to continue pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in cloud-based post-production.”
Postudio’s flexibility, scalability, and cost-effectiveness have led to swift adoption by media companies and independent production houses in India. The company is now preparing to extend its reach internationally, with plans to launch in the U.S. market in the latter half of 2025.
“Potstudio has found its product-market fit and is scaling rapidly. We are optimistic about the company’s future, thanks to the founders’ industry expertise and the perfect timing of their offerings. With the growing demand for scalable, AI-enabled, cloud-based solutions, we believe Postudio aims for success, and we’re committed to supporting them throughout their journey,” said Kabir Kochhar, Founder of Audacity Venture Capital.
The global post-production market, valued at $30 billion, is expected to exceed $50 billion by 2030. Traditional on-premise studios and offline workflows, once the industry norm, are becoming outdated due to their high costs, inflexibility, and inability to support remote work and AI-driven tools. Postudio is disrupting this expanding market with a comprehensive, on-demand, cloud-based platform that streamlines all post-production processes, setting it apart from its competitors. Large media enterprises have saved 20-40% by switching from on-premise systems to Postudio. The platform’s easy implementation, intuitive interface, advanced security features, and strong access controls provide unmatched content protection for enterprise clients.
