Ai Build secures £2.60 million Series A investment led by ACT Venture Partners and SuperSeed

London based SaaS company Ai Build, backed by industry heavy weight Boeing, closed a new
funding round of $3.2m led by ACT Venture Partners and existing investor SuperSeed.

“This is a time when manufacturers are looking to realise the potential that additive
manufacturing offers, making their supply chains more flexible, resilient, cost-effective and
sustainable. Ai Build enables its customers to rapidly achieve these strategic objectives through
its groundbreaking 3D printing software.” said Mads Jensen, Managing Partner at SuperSeed.
With the recent global pandemic causing unimaginable disruption to many supply chains, global manufacturers recognise now is the critical time to accelerate the adoption of additive
manufacturing at scale and advance to a more sustainable factory of the future.

“We were thrilled with the team’s achievements in developing and validating their platform with leading global customers from the automotive, aerospace, energy and construction sectors. Ai Build’s clear vision to enable faster, repeatable and sustainable additive manufacturing through AI and automation is a game changer in scaling production, and making Ai Build the default operating system for all additive machines will be key in their growth strategy” commented Gurcan Ozan, Partner at ACT Venture Parners.

Working with a global network of hardware manufacturers such as Kuka for robotics, Weber for
polymer machines and Meltio for metal 3D printing, Ai Build customers report productivity gains
of up to 90% on a diverse range of industrial additive manufacturing machines while eliminating
waste and cutting greenhouse emissions by approximately 70%. The intelligent software
platform uses advanced geometrical analysis, physics simulation and real-world data analytics
to automatically adapt and optimise part production across different machines in large
enterprises.

“We are excited to support Ai Build on their journey towards enabling sustainable factories of the future. Combination of a unique, AI-powered software platform and a world class team of
experts in their fields makes Ai Build a company that we can trust to accelerate our transition
into a more sustainable aerospace industry.” said Nichola Bates, Head of Global Accelerators
and Innovation Programs at Boeing.

The new investment received will accelerate Ai Build’s efforts to further develop its machine
learning models for fully automated quality assurance and integrate its software into a wide
range of industry standard 3D printers around the world. By creating a collaborative culture
among its partners and customers across multiple industries, Ai Build has the express interest of
unlocking the full potential of additive manufacturing to reach true global scalability.


“To enable faster adoption of additive manufacturing at industrial scale, we created a unique
company culture and a cloud-based collaboration platform where our engineering and
commercial teams, partners and end customers work closely on solving difficult real-world
problems together. Since our product launch last year we onboarded over 20 hardware partners
on AiSync as well as a customer base that is growing on a daily basis including several Fortune
500 manufacturers. The new investment will allow us to scale our teams across the board to
continue onboarding new partners and customers rapidly.” commented Daghan Cam, the
Co-founder and CEO of Ai Build.
