Former Kae Capital partner Natasha Malpani founded Boundless Ventures, an early-stage fund worth Rs 200 crore that supports Indian AI-native startups.
Targeting businesses developing consumer AI applications, infrastructure, agent tooling, vertical use cases like healthcare and logistics, and Made-in-India AI hardware, the fund will make investments in the pre-seed and seed stages.
Key Highlights

Boundless was created to support those founders before the rest of the world realized." Natasha Malpani stated, "I created Boundless as the fund I required as a founder: nimble, quick, and based on trust."
