Media processing company Gumlet raises $1.6 mn led by Sequoia's Surge

Gumlet, a SaaS startup providing new-age media delivery infrastructure to automate the media publishing pipeline, on Tuesday announced $1.6 million in funding by Sequoia Capital India’s Surge.

Gumlet helps developers resize and optimise their images and videos in accordance with the end user's device or browser, delivering high-quality media at the lowest possible bandwidth.

While media files such as images, GIFs, videos and animations are integral to all digital interactions and experiences today, current solutions for managing and publishing such content are still limited. This is largely due to their reliance on APIs that require deep integration, domain knowledge and constant maintenance.
