Rosh.Ai has gained significant traction since its establishment, securing a prestigious clientele that includes major automotive manufacturers, leading technology firms, and global truck companies.
Ev2 Ventures/Caret Capital and ThinKuvate led a USD 1 million Seed investment round in Rosh.Ai, a deep-tech company based in Kochi, specialising in vehicle-agnostic autonomous solutions. Founded in 2021, Rosh.Ai aims to revolutionize mobility by addressing issues like sea port congestion and mining productivity with advanced autonomy technology.

Rosh.Ai, established in 2021 and headquartered in Kochi, focuses on developing end-to-end autonomy stacks that include advanced mapping, perception, navigation, SoC development, and ADAS solutions.
