Matiks raises $10M to expand its math and puzzle gaming platform

Matiks, an India-based gaming company, has raised $10 million in pre-Series A funding to expand its math and puzzle gaming platform. The platform, which was launched two years ago, has seen significant growth in the past year, with daily users increasing from 22,000 to over 300,000 and monthly active users reaching 2.2 million in September. The company plans to use the funding to further develop its platform and make math-related games fun and entertaining. Matiks was founded by three college friends, including Sudhanshu Bhatia, who has a background in competitive mental math and was inspired to create the platform after realizing that most entertainment content is 'brain slop'.
