Foundry raises $100M Series A led by Marlinspike
Foundry, a manufacturing‑as‑a‑service startup that creates factories staffed by robots guided by physical AI models, announced a $100 million Series A financing round. The round was led by venture firm Marlinspike, with the capital intended to expand the company’s robot‑driven production facilities and accelerate development of its AI‑powered manufacturing platform.
Key points
- Foundry raised a $100 million Series A round
- The round was led by venture firm Marlinspike
- Funding will be used to scale robot‑driven factories built on physical AI models
Foundry’s approach combines physical‑world simulation models with autonomous robot control to allow customers to outsource entire production lines rather than individual machines. The funding follows a broader trend of large enterprises re‑engineering processes to extract more value from AI agents, as noted by industry observers. The company plans to use the new money to scale its factory‑as‑a‑service offering, hire engineering talent, and deepen partnerships with hardware manufacturers.
