Melbourne startup Syncrowin raises $3m for AI factory maintenance

Syncrowin raised $3 million to expand its AI system. This system spots equipment problems before they stop production.

Syncrowin, a Melbourne-based startup, closed a $3 million pre-seed round led by New York's Collide Capital. The company uses AI to gather data from machinery, sensors and maintenance records.

It spots problems and recommends fixes. For example, it can flag a pump that is slowing and suggest replacing a filter before production drops.

Kansakaar is Victoria's 2025 Young Australian of the Year. She is closing the largest pre-seed round ever for a female founder in Australia.

Jaideep Upadhyay is chief technology officer. The funding will expand the team in Melbourne and San Francisco, with focus on energy and manufacturing sectors.
