Wherobots Raises $5.5 Million in Funding to Accelerate Development of Next-Generation Data Platform for Geospatial Analytics & AI

Co-Led by Clear Ventures and Wing Venture Capital, the seed round will be used to launch Wherobots and its first product line

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Wherobots, the data platform for geospatial analytics and AI, announced today that it has raised a $5.5 million seed funding round. The round is co-led by Wing Venture Capital and Clear Ventures. Wherobots will be using the new capital to build products that enable every organization to extract business value from data via spatial location and time.

Founded by the original creators of Apache Sedona, Mo Sarwat and Jia Yu, Wherobots is bringing geospatial compute and AI technology to every decision making process, and enables users to easily develop, test, and deploy in-situ geospatial data stack in the cloud. This scalable geospatial data infrastructure software is already in use by several Fortune 500 companies, including Amazon, Allstate, and JB Hunt.

Unlike existing database platforms that only implement 10% of the functionality needed by geospatial applications, Wherobots pushes a comprehensive set of geospatial computation, analytics, and AI capabilities into the data stack, offering end-to-end geospatial data management for the enterprise, including:

  • Geospatial Data Science Acceleration: A hassle-free tool to develop, debug, and test geospatial data science, machine learning and analytics applications.
  • Cloud-Integrated Geospatial Pipeline: Deploy developed geospatial data programs with major cloud data services such as Databricks, Snowflake, AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud that can be automatically scheduled by the user.
  • Geospatial Data Stack Versatility: Allows Python users to keep utilizing their beloved GeoPandas while using Apache Sedona for the heavy lifting geospatial data processing.
  • Fully Managed Spatial Data Pipeline: Run your geospatial data analytics application on massive data with fully managed in-situ spatial data partitioning, indexing, and tuning.

“We created Wherobots to enable every organization to unleash the potential of their data using spatiotemporal context-enriched analytics and AI,” said Wherobots Co-Founder and CEO, Mo Sarwat. “Our users never have to worry about the hassle of cloud administration, workload scalability, and geospatial processing support and optimization.”

"Wherobots has demonstrated exceptional expertise in developing advanced geospatial data infrastructure and AI technology, and we are thrilled to support their continued growth and innovation," said Peter Wagner, Partner at Wing Venture Capital.
