We fine-tuned a 2B vision-language model to parse bank statements at production scale. The full write-up from Shubham Tiwari is on our engineering blog. Fine-tuning is no longer the hard part. You have the GPU, the dataset, the model. The training script is a few hundred lines. The hard part is everything that happens after. The post covers how we worked through GPU bottlenecks when bank statements pushed output tokens past our context window and resource constraints, tuned the VLM-specific parameters that defaults get wrong, fine-tuned training prompts to fix specific field regressions, and a few other things that mattered more than hyperparameters. Why does this matter? Frontier APIs handle document AI well, until you're processing tens of thousands of pages a day. At that point you're paying thousands a month, inheriting rate limits, and can't fix specific failure modes. A purpose-built 2B model on a single GPU changes the economics. Really proud of the work Shubham and the team put into this. https://lnkd.in/g3qkuQvd

Nasdaq-listed MakeMyTrip is evaluating an India listing for its domestic arm, MakeMyTrip India, to unlock local capital from institutions, HNIs and retail investors amid surging travel demand. This follows a March 16 SEC filing that details internal restructuring—merging redBus India into the entity to consolidate flights, hotels, buses and holidays under one streamlined roof for sharper domestic focus. "An India listing can be a catalyst to further boost the MakeMyTrip brand in its core market, strengthen its leadership in India and support longer-term growth," the company stated in the filing. The strategic pivot builds on last year's $2.6B share buyback from Trip.com (stake now <20%), echoing chairman Deep Kalra's 2022 comments on exploring an India public offering. Underpinning the scale are 87M lifetime retail users, 77K SME/corporate clients, 549M app downloads, 32.5M hotel nights booked and 104.6M bus tickets sold—bolstered by recent bets like a majority stake in Flamingo Transworld Pvt Ltd (regional holidays) and Atlys investment (visas) for end-to-end travel control. #MakeMyTripIPO #TravelTechIndia #StartupNews

Excited to partner with Mohak and the team at Atlys as we lead their $36M Series C. For hundreds of millions of travelers on weak passports, the visa isn't a formality. It's a bottleneck: manual, opaque, and anxiety-inducing in a way that flights and hotels stopped being a decade ago. Mohak and the team have built something rare: a product that makes a bureaucratic process feel reliable. But what makes the approach distinctive is the compounding data layer underneath. Every processed visa strengthens a traveler identity graph, improving approval rates, enabling instant re-applications, and becoming more defensible with scale. Atlys isn't just a visa processing startup. It's building the infrastructure layer for how global mobility gets verified and accessed, and cross-border travel is one of the clearest long-term growth stories out of emerging markets. Proud to be partners on this journey alongside Mayank Khanduja from Elevation Capital, Mohit Bhatnagar from Peak XV Partners, and Sriram K. from Kearny Jackson, who've supported the company from the early days.

Travel has gone online. Visa access, still hasn’t. That gap is what Atlys is building for. For millions of travelers, the visa process remains opaque, manual, and stressful. Atlys is digitising that workflow and turning it into a software product, bringing greater speed, transparency, and predictability to one of the most frustrating parts of international travel. The problem has felt especially real to me over the past year. At one point during the diligence process my passport was tied up with immigration authorities for a visa application, which ironically meant I couldn’t travel back to India to meet Mohak. It was a reminder that visas are still the most unpredictable part of international mobility. What stood out to us about Atlys was the product clarity. Mohak and the team understand that visa processing is not just paperwork. It is a trust problem, a speed problem, and a predictability problem at its core. By combining automation and AI, they are turning a broken workflow into a far more reliable experience. We at Susquehanna Asia Venture Capital are pleased to lead Atlys’s Series C and partner with Mohak and the team as they work to make global travel more accessible, predictable, and seamless. Looking forward to working alongside the great partners (Mayank, Ravi from Elevation Capital; Mohit from Peak XV Partners; Sriram from Kearny Jackson) who have supported the company from the early days. https://lnkd.in/gVhKQ5Qk Susquehanna Asia Venture Capital | Bhavanipratap Rana, Dikshit Rekhi

Atlys didn’t do miracles, they did it the better way. Stayed with me through a tough moment, gave comfort & confidence, and then made it happen. They reminded me how powerful good service can feel, and how you forget about the premium when the experience is good. I’ll gona stick with them for future visa applications and hope they keep this level of care for everyone and in future. Thank you Divakar Trivedi
