NeoSapien raises $2 million for India's 1st AI-native wearable

Business Dec 11, 2025

NeoSapien, a startup from India, just raised $2 million in seed funding led by Merak Ventures, with support from well-known angel investors like Awais Ahmed and Anupam Mittal.
The money is going toward Neo 1—an AI-native wearable designed to act as your "second brain" by remembering, processing, and organizing your daily conversations and tasks.

What makes Neo 1 different?

Neo 1 stands out with its persistent memory and ability to understand context, supporting over 100 languages (from Kannada to Mandarin).
Powered by NeoSapien's own operating system, it offers proactive insights without needing you to constantly interact.
Looking ahead, the team wants their tech to power all kinds of wearables—think glasses or rings—while keeping privacy front and center.
