MarqVision, an AI brand protection startup, secured $48 million in Series B funding. Peak XV Partners led the round, announced on September 15, 2025. This investment consequently brings MarqVision's total capital raised to approximately $90 million.
The company, founded in 2021, uses artificial intelligence and computer vision to combat counterfeiting and trademark infringement. MarqVision's AI brand protection platform helps brands recover lost revenue by detecting and removing fake products online. It currently serves over 350 customers across various sectors, including fashion, gaming, and automotive.
Expanding AI-Powered Brand Control
MarqVision will allocate half of the new capital to expand its AI and engineering teams. This investment aims to accelerate automation and integrate generative AI across its product suite. Furthermore, $10 million will prepare the platform for enterprise clients, targeting larger brands.
An additional $10 million supports regional expansion. MarqVision currently operates in the U.S., Korea, China, and Europe. The company now enters Japan, extending its global reach in intellectual property enforcement. Competitors like Corsearch and Red Points also operate in this space, offering similar AI brand protection solutions.
MarqVision combats a $3 trillion annual counterfeiting industry.
The startup achieved $1 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) within eight months. It then reached $10 million in three years and recently crossed $20 million after four years. MarqVision consequently aims for $100 million ARR by mid-2027, demonstrating consistent growth. BrandShield offers similar brand protection services.
Returning backers YC, Altos Ventures, and Atinum Investment participated in the round. Salesforce Ventures, HSG, and Coral Capital also joined the financing. MarqVision plans to become the AI-led services platform for IP and brand professionals worldwide.
