Funding will accelerate deployments and real world data capture across the United States
LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–375ai, an edge data intelligence company turning the physical world into machine-readable insights, announced today that it has raised an additional $5 million to expand its edge data intelligence network and advance its mission to deliver real time insights for AI models, cities, enterprises, and governments. The round is led by Delphi Ventures, Strobe Capital and HackVC, It takes the total raised to $10m with original participation from 6MV, ARCA, Primal, and EV3.
“Cities, enterprises, and governments need real-time intelligence to understand the physical world as it unfolds,” said Harry Dewhirst, CEO of 375ai. “This investment validates and accelerates our mission to drive real-world impact and reshape the way society works, as we move towards physical AI and an agentic world — from enabling smarter cities and businesses to creating safer streets and more efficient robotics and autonomous transport.”
The physical world is generating more data than ever before, but most of it is invisible — traffic systems, advertising platforms, and governments still rely on outdated infrastructure and fragmented data sources to understand how people and goods move through cities. Centralized data pipelines are expensive, slow, and often limited to incomplete or delayed insights. Meanwhile, AI systems are hungry for real world context not just synthetic inputs. Without structured, real time data, they can’t power smarter mobility, logistics, and safety solutions.
“375ai is positioned to become core infrastructure for AI,” said Tommy Shaughnessy, Founding Partner of Delphi Ventures. “Its ability to compress vast amounts of raw data into actionable intelligence at scale has the power to transform entire sectors, from creating smarter mobility systems to powering more meaningful AI-driven applications worldwide.”
375ai is building an edge data intelligence network on Solana to transform the physical world into structured intelligence. At the core of 375ai is its 375edge device, equipped with high-definition cameras, audio and environmental sensors, and on-device compute powered by NVIDIA Jetson and DeepStream. Instead of transmitting massive raw streams, devices process data locally, distilling 1TB of raw inputs into just 35 MB of insights each day, leading to a 26,000x reduction in data volume. By pushing compute to the edge, 375ai lowers bandwidth costs, improves privacy, and delivers intelligence in real time in a privacy centric way
Leveraging the high-value sites accessed through its partnership with Outfront Media, 375ai already monitors 1.5 million vehicles daily through its deployments, providing businesses, local agencies, and logistic operators unprecedented visibility into the movement and behavior of the world that was previously impossible to achieve.
Beyond Los Angeles, 375ai is actively rolling out deployments across the New York and Miami metropolitan areas, with international expansion planned for 2026. The new capital will support faster deployments, denser coverage in existing markets, and continued product development.
375ai is led by a seasoned executive team with decades of experience in networking, cybersecurity, telecoms, digital media, and data. Alongside CEO Harry Dewhirst, the leadership team includes COO Rob Atherton, CBO Trevor Branon, and Chief AI Officer Chad Partridge. Collectively, they bring backgrounds at companies such as Juniper Networks, Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet, Linksys, Singtel, and Telefonica.
About 375ai
Founded in 2022, 375ai transforms messy, analog real-world phenomena into structured digital intelligence. By deploying AI powered edge devices across cities, 375ai makes the world machine-readable, one city at a time. Each 375edge device processes massive raw data streams locally, distilling them into actionable insights that fuel applications in advertising, logistics, public safety, economic forecasting, and beyond. With live deployments in Los Angeles and expansions underway in New York and Miami, 375ai is building the foundation for real world AI at global scale.
