Indian deep-tech startup Solinas has raised $5.5 million in a Series A1 round co-led by Mela Ventures and Hero Enterprise Family Office.
India loses 40–50% of its treated water before it reaches homes due to unmapped underground pipes. Solinas builds robots and an integrated AI platform to inspect, clean, and predict failures across the country's water and sanitation networks.
