Hobby-based offline community platform Misfits has raised Rs 5 crore in a seed funding round co- led by Info Edge Ventures and Better Capital.

The startup had previously raised an undisclosed amount from Titan Capital.

The fresh funds will be utilized to enhance its mobile platform, making it even easier for people to join, create and grow communities while expanding into new cities across urban India, Misfits said in a press release.

Co-founded in 2022 by Shashwat Narhatiyar, Chaitanya Dhawan, Saurabh Sharma, and Shaswat Kar, Misfits is a hobby-based offline community platform where club members, club leaders, and venues unite to form healthy, thriving communities. The platform aims to empower hobby enthusiasts to create and lead their own communities. It provides a platform to join, create, sustain, and grow clubs safely and effectively, fostering meaningful offline connections in an increasingly digital world.

The Gurugram-based company connects individuals through hobby-based activities, enabling people to discover like-minded people and build offline connections around shared interests. From intense football matches and brainy quiz nights to art, journaling, and music jam sessions, there’s a club for everyone.

Each club, powered by independent club leaders, hosts weekly meetups at local venues, transforming everyday hangouts into vibrant social experiences. While independent club leaders curate the meetups, venue partners enjoy higher footfalls and a boost in revenue, creating a win-win ecosystem where everyone benefits.

Misfits claims to have over 25,000 organic app downloads and more than 3,000 social meetups hosted since launch.
