Cloud-based post-production software company Postudio announced that it has raised $1 million funding in a pre-seed round led by media-tech focused venture capital firm Audacity Venture Capital. The company also has crossed a milestone of $1 million ARR within two years of its launch and plans to double the revenues in 2025 on the back of growing demand for remote collaboration and its commitment to affordability and data security measures.

The new capital will be used for rapid scale-up, product development and expansion of the team.
Founded by media veterans Dhawal Gusain and Harish Prabhu, Postudio is revolutionizing the post-production industry with its web-based platform that provides unprecedented flexibility, scalability and affordability to creators.

Commenting on Postudio’s success and expansion plan, Dhawal Gusain, Co-founder of Postudio, said “We’ve scaled quickly in the Indian enterprise segment in a very capital efficient manner. In 2025, we plan to sustain this momentum and expand into the U.S. market in the second half of this year.”

Co-founder Harish Prabhu, added, “At Postudio, our goal has always been to empower creative teams with tools that simplify and enhance their post-production workflows. Our platform already supports key processes like virtual editing, real-time collaboration, and seamless camera-to-edit data transfer. We’re now doubling down on innovation, integrating cutting-edge AI and Gen AI workflows to redefine post-production. For instance, our AI-driven content localization tool, currently in beta testing with clients, has received promising feedback. With an ambitious roadmap for 2025, we’re excited to continue pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in cloud-based post-production.”

Given Postudio’s flexibility, scalability and affordability, Postudio is seeing rapid adoption among media enterprises as well as many independent production houses in India. Postudio is now set to expand its reach globally with a plan to launch in the US market in H2 2025.

“Postudio has found its product-market fit and is scaling rapidly. We are optimistic about the company’s future, thanks to the founders’ industry expertise and the perfect timing of their offerings. With the growing demand for scalable, AI enabled, cloud-based solutions, we believe Postudio is poised for success, and we’re committed to supporting them throughout their journey,” said Kabir Kochhar, Founder of Audacity Venture Capital.

The global post- production market, currently valued at $30 billion, is projected to surpass $50 billion by 2030. Traditional on-premise studios and offline workflows, which have long been the industry standard, are increasingly outdated—costly, rigid, and ill-suited for the rise of remote work and AI-driven tools. Postudio is disrupting this growing market by delivering a comprehensive, on-demand, cloud-based platform that covers all post-production workflows, setting it apart from competitors.

Major media enterprises have realized 20-40% cost savings by transitioning from on-premise solutions to Postudio. The platform’s turnkey design and intuitive interface make implementation seamless, while advanced security features and robust access controls ensure unparalleled content protection for enterprise clients.
