Mumbai, India & Dubai, UAE - Dec 31, 2025 

Sanate Electronics and FasterCapital today announced a strategic partnership through the Equitypilot program to accelerate commercialization of SANATE’s RF (radio frequency) power technology for wireless peripherals. The collaboration targets initial deployment in India and expansion into North America and global markets, aiming to replace lithium batteries in keyboards, mice, gamepads and headsets while supporting product development, manufacturing and fundraising.

Market opportunity & problem statement

The global wireless electronic device market exceeds $112 billion, driven by constant consumer demand for untethered peripherals. Today, lithium-ion batteries power most devices, but mining and lifecycle impacts create significant environmental and e‑waste challenges: each tonne of lithium mined produces roughly 15 tonnes of CO2 and batteries require frequent replacement. SANATE targets inefficiencies in battery reliance and e-waste generation by offering continuous RF power as an alternative, positioning itself against incumbents like Logitech and addressing a white-space opportunity for truly battery-free consumer peripherals.

Startup solution & differentiation

SANATE’s solution transmits RF energy from a compact transmitter to integrated receivers in peripherals, enabling continuous operation without onboard lithium cells. Initial product line includes computer keyboards, mice, gamepads (joysticks) and headphones designed for plug-and-play integration, reduced maintenance, and extended product lifespans. Key differentiators include systems-level RF power optimization, modular receiver designs for quick OEM adoption, and a focus on manufacturing-ready engineering. Early traction highlights target markets of 1.142+ billion in India and scalable entry into the $16+ billion North American market; SANATE is finalizing development and manufacturing SoW agreements and preparing pilot deployments.

FasterCapital partnership value

Through FasterCapital’s Equitypilot program, SANATE will receive mentorship, product development guidance, go-to-market support, and access to FasterCapital’s global investor network. FasterCapital’s selective criteria and track record of accelerating B2B hardware and deep-tech startups provide validation and capital-raising support tailored to SANATE’s pre-seed needs. The program will help compress development timelines, secure initial manufacturing partners, and launch a replicable sales process to reach target markets within 12–18 months.

Executive quotes

“Harnessing RF to replace disposable lithium batteries addresses a pressing environmental and commercial need,” said Hesham Zreik. “FasterCapital is partnering with SANATE because it combines scalable hardware innovation with a clear market entry strategy and strong sustainability impact exactly the kind of company Equitypilot is built to accelerate.”

“Our mission is to eliminate battery-driven e-waste from everyday peripherals,” said Malsawmdawngzel, Founder & CEO, SANATE. “With FasterCapital’s resources and network we will accelerate product validation, scale manufacturing, and bring battery-free RF peripherals to consumers and enterprises faster than we could alone.”

Growth trajectory & future plans

Near-term milestones include completing prototype validation, securing initial manufacturing runs, and launching India pilots within 6–12 months, followed by North America market entry. SANATE plans to raise pre-seed funding through Equitypilot to support production, hire a sales head and two field staff, and build operations infrastructure. Long-term vision is global adoption across consumer and enterprise channels, significantly reducing lithium battery demand in peripherals.
