Fcode Labs, a digital product engineering firm, said it has made a strategic investment in Linkify, a Sri Lanka-based startup that uses AI to help professionals build personal brands on LinkedIn. As part of the deal, the companies will partner to scale Linkify’s content and engagement platform, which targets time-pressed founders and consultants by streamlining content planning and turning cold leads into warmer opportunities. This collaboration reflects Fcode Labs’ commitment to accelerating early-stage innovation in Sri Lanka through a mix of seed funding and technical mentorship. As part of the partnership, Fcode Labs will provide capital, product engineering support, go-to-market expertise and marketing support to help Linkify scale its platform and reach global markets. “We’re not just investing in a product, we’re investing in a vision,” said Fcode Labs Co-CEO Buddhishan Manamperi. “I personally used Linkify early on, and the experience convinced me it was something worth backing. It’s a simple, effective tool with global potential that solves a real problem.” 

Linkify is a personal branding platform designed for time-strapped founders, consultants, and professionals who want to grow on LinkedIn without overthinking every post. The platform helps users build trust, connect with the right audience, and turn cold leads into warm conversations by streamlining content creation, engagement, and outreach. Being an AI LinkedIn Post Generator, it crafts professional content that sounds authentic, helps users stay consistent even with limited time, and tracks engagement signals so users know exactly when to reach out. It also provides guidance on how to interact with strategic content to improve visibility and attract the right people. Founded by Affan Ahamed and Adithya Narasinghe, Linkify is already gaining traction among professionals across the region. Ahamed brings expertise and experience in go-to-market strategy and personal branding, helping shape the platform’s positioning and outreach. Narasinghe, a respected figure in Sri Lanka’s developer community, has previously contributed to several successful startups, including the country’s largest telemedicine app. With Fcode Labs’ backing, the team is focused on expanding Linkify’s core features and advancing its AI-driven personalisation engine. “Fcode Labs brings more than just capital, they bring operational wisdom, technical scale, and product mindset,” said Linkify CEO Affan Ahamed. “This partnership gives us the room to grow faster and smarter, without losing focus on what matters most: helping people show up online as their best, most credible selves.” 

With a proven track record in building mission-critical digital products across various domains, Fcode Labs is extending its innovation and investing capacity to Sri Lanka’s startup landscape. This move reflects the company’s broader vision of nurturing homegrown talent building globally scalable tech solutions. Fcode Labs Co-CEO Tharindu Malawaraarachchi said, “We see immense potential in the Linkify. What impressed me the most is how fast they have validated their idea with real paying users from multiple regions. By investing in startups like Linkify, we’re backing innovation that’s born here but built for the world.”
