In February this year, it became known that zypl.ai had raised USD 3.3 million, including USD 2.5 million from Prosus Ventures. Other participants in that round included Battery Road (the venture holding of David Halpert, Chairman of the Board at zypl.ai), MoreThan Capital, Hub71, and Astana Hub Ventures.
Subsequently, the startup closed an additional USD 3 million tranche together with California-based Carbide Ventures, bringing the total amount raised in the pre-Series A round to USD 6.3 million.
According to Nurgozhin, the project is actively expanding in the MENA region and has already signed contracts with two to three major banks in the UAE and Saudi Arabia.
“Overall, I want to say that zypl.ai is a strong company whose revenues double every year. They entered AI-based credit scoring very early for our region, even ahead of credit bureaus with their massive datasets. If I’m not mistaken, the total loan portfolio processed through zypl.ai has already exceeded USD 300 million,” the investor said.
Nurgozhin believes zypl.ai has strong potential to become a unicorn:
“In my view, zypl.ai has global potential. They are now moving toward a multi-agent platform that will not only provide access to alternative data sources, but also analyze, structure, and train AI models to deliver highly accurate decisions. Such a system could take on functions similar to those performed by credit bureaus, while offering an alternative approach to assessing creditworthiness in financial institutions. Considering this, I believe zypl.ai could one day become a unicorn. Especially since it is backed by an excellent team—brilliant developers from Dushanbe—and a great founder, Azizjon Azimi: tireless, exceptionally polite, and wise beyond his years.”
