8090 Solutions raises $135M Series A led by Salesforce

The round was announced on June 29, 2026, with the wire release dated June 30, so it landed a few days before July. Co-investors were WNDR, Craft Ventures, The Production Board and LAUNCH. Angels included Nikesh Arora, Adam D'Angelo and Thomas Laffont. Proceeds go toward expanding the commercial footprint and scaling Software Factory globally, along with hiring and compute. One caveat: the company homepage qualifies the funding headline as inclusive of seed funding, so the Series A alone may be smaller than $135M. The product is a platform where teams of people and AI agents change enterprise software together. 8090 also runs a delivery business, building, hosting and maintaining custom software for large companies in healthcare, insurance, life sciences, manufacturing, government and financial services. A manufacturer customer brought more than 10,000 parts under real-time validation. One third-party review lists $200/user pricing and an EY.ai partnership. For AI founders, the signal is that a strategic investor is backing a services-plus-platform model in regulated sectors, not a pure tool. Staying accountable for systems after go-live is the differentiator 8090 stresses. Teams building AI dev tooling should expect to compete against this bundle, and enterprise distribution through a CRM-platform investor may count as much as model quality.
