The government's count beside ours

Computer Vision, the government's industry facet: our count against the government's, with the difference
Our count 1,486
Computer Vision, the government's industry facet 1,505
Difference -19 (-1.3%)

A gap is expected and is not an error in either number: ours counts resolved companies after merging duplicate profiles, the government's counts profiles.

Chapters 2 to 14, 40 pages, the PDF: Report ₹249, or Library ₹749 for all 138.

What stands out

1,486 companies chose Computer Vision, 0.3% of the register. Bengaluru holds the most with 149. 6 districts carry 50 or more, which between them is 534 of the 1,486; the rest are spread across districts too small for a page, and the report counts every one.

The government's own facet for Computer Vision counts 1,505 over its whole population, against our 1,486. Neither number is the other's error: the two are counted over different populations and the report prints the gap. Industry is chosen by the company from the government's list when it registers, self-selected and never audited, and a company may pick more than one.

Registration is not an operating signal. A large share of registered startups are dormant, and we have no way to tell you which. How we counted.

Composed from the August 2026 counts. Edition 1 replaces this with the report's own written summary.

Who it is for

Ecosystem professionals
A citable, designed report for a deck or a tender: eight things the site does not have, from the monthly curve since 2016 to the tax-exemption applications, with Lucknow open in full so you can judge the series before buying into it.
Investors and researchers
Companies by industry, district, stage and evidence, in four honest classes and never one "funded" boolean, plus the exemption applications nobody else publishes. We hold no amounts and we never fake them.

Five questions

What is in the Computer Vision report?
14 chapters over 46 pages: What the register says about Computer Vision, How the register grew, Sectors within Computer Vision, Stage, and 10 more, ending in the methodology and an appendix. It comes as a PDF and as chapters inside the research portal, and one purchase covers every refreshed edition of this report for 12 months.
Is it just the Indian Startup Map website printed to PDF?
No. Eight things the site does not have: the monthly registration curve since 2016, capital bands, every pincode ranked, the peer table, the government's count beside ours, the 60 best-evidenced in one table, the Seed Fund ledger, and the tax-exemption applications. The free chapter on this page is the one part that overlaps with Computer Vision startups in India, and the whole Lucknow report is open so you can see the other 13 chapters before paying for any.
How fresh is the Computer Vision report?
It is built from the August 2026 snapshot of the register, edition 1. The register is swept monthly and each sweep produces a new edition; a Report buyer receives every edition of this report for 12 months. Nothing in it claims growth across snapshots until two exist to compare.
Can I get the list of Computer Vision startups instead?
The report is chapters, not rows. The rows are in Explore on the research portal: the count for any filter is free, the first 25 rows with website and CIN on a free account, 200 per search on Library, and every row with a CSV or XLSX export on Pro, 5,000 rows a file and never the address line.
What does "registered" mean here?
Registration is not an operating signal. A large share of registered startups are dormant, and we have no way to tell you which. A startup on this register filled in a Startup India profile. DPIIT recognition, where it shows, is a status the portal displays and not a check we ran. Registration is not incorporation, and it is not activity.
