Jul 31, 2025

US & India, July 31st, 2025: GameRamp, an AI-native publishing operating system built for the next wave of mobile games & consumer apps, has raised a $5.4 million pre-seed funding round led by BITKRAFT Ventures, with participation from South Park Commons, Mixi, DeVC, Sony Innovation Fund (SIF), and others.
"LiveOps has evolved into an intensely complex landscape—AI is now the only practical way for developers to operate at the scale and velocity demanded today," said Vivek Ramachandran, Co-founder & CEO of GameRamp. "GameRamp isn’t just improving existing processes; it’s enabling a completely new level of experimentation and insight. We’ve already seen exciting results from partners across emerging markets like Vietnam and India, and we're preparing to extend our impact into MENA and Turkey."
The capital raised will accelerate GameRamp’s expansion of its engineering and applied AI teams in the USA and India, rapidly advancing product development. The investment will also expedite the launch of two services: Sentinel, a reinforcement learning-based AI agent offering real-time optimization of in-game economies, offer timing, and ad monetization; and Grow, a one-click embedded financing layer that leverages GameRamp’s ML-driven forecasts to provide developers seamless access to growth capital.
Founded by Vivek Ramachandran and Sashank Vandrangi, GameRamp acts as an AI copilot for monetization and growth teams, empowering developers to experiment and deploy monetization strategies at unprecedented speed. By automating always-on optimizations, GameRamp helps studios drive a 40–60% increase in ARPDAU. GameRamp continuously improves in the background, ensuring features are always optimally tuned.
Anuj Tandon, Partner at BITKRAFT Ventures, added: “GameRamp’s team embodies an extraordinary blend of deep machine learning expertise and free-to-play product innovation. Vivek and Sashank’s experience leading tech and LiveOps strategies for some of the largest global games positions GameRamp to fundamentally redefine how consumer internet entrepreneurs scale in emerging markets.”
