Bedrock Robotics Raises $270 Million Series B to Scale Autonomous Construction
Bedrock Robotics has raised $270 million in Series B funding co-led by CapitalG and Valor Atreides AI Fund, with participation from multiple investors including Xora, 8VC, Eclipse, NVentures, and Tishman Speyer, announced in a press release. The round brings Bedrock’s total funding to over $350 million.
The San Francisco-based company, founded by former Waymo engineers, develops autonomous systems for construction equipment such as excavators, bulldozers, and loaders. The new capital will accelerate the deployment of its connected fleet technology and support scaling of its autonomous solutions across large construction sites.
Bedrock recently completed a large-scale supervised autonomy deployment for mass excavation on a 130-acre manufacturing site and plans its first fully operator-less excavator deployments with customers in 2026. The company also expanded its leadership team with new hires from Meta and Waymo to strengthen its AI safety and operations capabilities.
Contractors across multiple U.S. states are exploring Bedrock’s systems for projects in industrial, port, and data center construction, as the industry faces significant labor shortages and growing project backlogs.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?
Tensordyne
This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
