NODA AI Raises $25M to Advance Defense Autonomy Platform

NODA AI has raised $25 million in Series A funding led by Bessemer Venture Partners, with participation from Booz Allen Ventures, Draper Associates, Bloomberg Beta, and Alumni Ventures, announced in a press release. The funding will support the company’s work on AI-powered orchestration technologies for the U.S. Department of War, the UK Ministry of Defence, and other intelligence customers.

The investment will help NODA AI accelerate integration across more than 30 autonomous systems platforms and expand its capabilities in defense autonomy. The company’s platform coordinates mixed fleets of manned and unmanned systems across air, land, sea, and space domains, providing a unified control layer for algorithmic tactics and strategy.

Founded in 2024 by veterans of the Global War on Terrorism, NODA AI develops a vendor-agnostic reasoning engine designed to manage cross-platform autonomy. The company collaborates with major defense contractors, including Booz Allen Hamilton and Huntington Ingalls Industries, to build scalable orchestration tools for government defense programs.
