About Us

upGrowth is a growth company based in Pune that helps funded startups and mid-market businesses scale across India, the UAE, and the wider GCC. As of 2026, we have helped clients including Lendingkart, Scripbox, Fi.Money, RCB, Puffbar and Innoviti.

Our work is built on a single principle. Growth is engineered, not stumbled into. Every channel we activate and every system we build ties back to a metric the founder actually cares about, whether that is qualified pipeline, payback period, or the ratio of customer lifetime value to acquisition cost.

We operate across four core areas. Organic growth through SEO, GEO, and AEO. Performance marketing and demand generation. Fractional CMO leadership for teams that need senior marketing thinking without a full-time hire. And a growing library of AI-powered tools and frameworks at upgrowth.in.

If you are looking for an agency that treats your growth like an engineering problem rather than a content calendar, get in touch.

 

Why We Started upGrowth

 

We started upGrowth in 2017 because digital growth had become a black box.

Agencies were selling complexity. Reports were burying the actual signal under fifty tabs of vanity metrics. And retainers were staying safe because nobody was tying spend back to revenue with any honesty.

We had spent enough years on the buyer’s side of that table to know where the problem really sat. Digital wasn’t broken. The people selling it were unwilling to say what was working, what wasn’t, and why.

So we built the opposite of that. Transparent on what’s moving. Honest on what isn’t. Built to earn next month’s invoice through the work, not through the relationship.

That principle still runs everything we do. It’s why every engagement starts with a diagnosis instead of a pitch, and why we’d rather walk away from a deal that doesn’t fit than dress it up and disappoint a founder six months in.

 

What We Believe

 

Growth is engineered, not accidental.

Sustainable growth comes from three things working in sequence. Positioning the market actually rewards, channels that compound instead of renting attention, and measurement that connects spend to revenue without sleight of hand.

This is why our work is built around proprietary systems like the Organic Compounding System and the Performance Growth Engine, rather than a generic services menu that bills by the hour.

 

How We Work

 

Every engagement starts with a diagnosis, not a pitch.

We map where growth is leaking before we recommend where to invest. The clients who get the most out of working with us are funded startups and mid-market businesses across India, Dubai, and the wider GCC, where speed of execution and clarity of attribution matter equally.

 

Our work currently sits in four areas

 

  1. SEO, GEO, and AEO strategy built for the AI search era.
  2. Performance marketing and demand generation tied to pipeline.
  3. Fractional CMO leadership for teams that need senior marketing thinking without a full-time hire.
  4. A growing library of AI-powered tools, calculators, and frameworks at upgrowth.in.
