ASI完成3.25亿美元C轮融资,估值达30亿美元
总部位于波士顿的ASI(原名Air Space Intelligence)10月20日宣布完成3.25亿美元C轮融资,估值达30亿美元,由Spark Capital领投,Citadel Securities旗下关联机构、Meritech Capital、Craft Ventures、Energy Impact Partners和Andreessen Horowitz参投。其软件可提前数小时、数天乃至数周对空中交通、电网和军事行动进行建模,让运营方在问题扩大前采取行动。本轮融资之前,ASI于6月击败Palantir和Thales,赢得美国联邦航空管理局(FAA)为期12年、价值8.75亿美元的合同;10月又获得美国陆军为期五年、价值9900万美元的指挥控制合同。据The Next Web和SiliconANGLE报道,FAA已开始在华盛顿周边使用该系统,并计划在全国推广。
此次融资紧跟在FAA 8.75亿美元合同和陆军9900万美元合同之后,显示投资者看好用于运营实体基础设施、而非生成文本的AI。

ASI has raised $325 million in a Series C round that values it at $3 billion, the Boston AI company announced on Tuesday. Its software models air traffic, power grids and military operations hours, days and weeks ahead. The aim is to let operators act before problems spread.
Spark Capital led the round. Affiliates of Citadel Securities, Meritech Capital, Craft Ventures, Energy Impact Partners and Andreessen Horowitz also took part. The company used to go by the name Air Space Intelligence, Bloomberg reported. Gradient, which led its pre-seed round, congratulated the team on X.
