About Circle Internet Tech Private Limited

We are a local newspaper reimagined for mobile. We are solving the need for locally relevant news and information, of Indian vernacular internet users (users who prefer to use the internet in Indian languages). Currently, the way in which hyperlocal news is produced and distributed is completely optimized for print media, resulting in poor UX for users, pretty large TAT for news and unavailability of multimedia content. We aim to build the right mobile products and technology for the processes involved, making the value chain more efficient and real time. Circle News was started by three IIT Kanpur alumni and we have a strong team of people from premier institutes who have worked in the past with start-ups and companies like ShareChat, Grabhouse, etc. We are seed-funded from one of the top VCs of the Indian startup ecosystem. We launched the product in August'18 and so far have seen amazing growth & engagement (1.6 lakh downloads).
