Bangalore, February 5, 2017- Aisle, an online Indian dating brand, raise an Undisclosed Angel Round from Konglo Ventures LLP and others on LetsVenture.
“We think Aisle stands out as a platform that offers a unique value proposition for the urban crowd in India. It is addressing a genuine problem and the approach they have taken is quite interesting in terms of the business model, product design and the curation process. Moreover, they are looking at the right market given that the rate of urbanisation is increasing and the urban crowd is quickly shifting away from traditional ways of finding a life partner. Although there are several players in this space, we believe Aisle will be able to carve out a niche for itself if they stick to their original value proposition.” said Vinod Jose, Partner at Konglo Ventures LLP and lead investor in the round.
“Online dating has been a casual gamified effort for the past couple of decades. Aisle is a fresh product that induces seriousness in its users which seem to be radically changing the way modern Indians are meeting their soulmates. Women in India have taken a liking to how Aisle works, that's important for a matchmaking product. It is not typical of a B2C product with limited capital to make their mark in a crowded market like Aisle has. The team has built a well designed and well-monetized product. More importantly, they've taken it to market successfully. Able & Bivin met their wives on Aisle, and that's fantastic validation for the platform. As their journey continues, we will see a lot more social impact being created.” said Anand Chandrasekaran, Head of Platform / Product Partnerships for Messenger at Facebook and investor in the round.
