Consumers found Vuclip and started forwarding its videos via SMS messages to their friends. Early adopters started watching and sharing videos, leading to viral dissemination. Carriers like Vodafone and Airtel in India started finding Vuclip on their logs and started promoting it because it led to greater data consumption. Handset manufacturers started preloading the Vuclip launcher on their devices to make themselves more attractive to consumers. Vuclip was incorporated as a Milpitas-based mobile video search company by Nickhil Jakatdar (Founder and CEO, Vuclip) and Xinhui Niu in July 2008. The company raised $13 million in Series D, led by a new investor, SingTel Innov8 as the lead investor to further expand into new geographies and innovate on its platform. Since inception in 2008, Vuclip has attracted more than $40 million in investment from outfits including U.S. venture capital firms New Enterprise Associates and Jafco Ventures and Singapore's SingTel Innov8. In March 2015, PCCW Media, a Hong Kong-based Media and Entertainment Group acquired a majority stake in the company to enable it to expedite the roll-out of over-the-top (OTT) video services in the Asia Pacific region. Vuclip opened a research and development (R&D) center in Pune, India in February 2015.
