Point One Navigation has closed a $35 million Series C financing round to accelerate the growth of its high-precision location platform, marking a significant milestone in the company’s mission to bring centimeter-level accuracy to vehicles, robots, wearables, and connected devices worldwide. The oversubscribed round was led by Khosla Ventures, with additional participation from IA Ventures, UP Partners, and Alumni Ventures.
The new capital will fuel infrastructure expansion, software advancements, OEM integrations, and scaled hiring across R&D, engineering, customer success, and international operations. The company aims to make precise, real-time location accessible to developers globally, supporting the growing ecosystem of Physical AI technologies that rely on spatial awareness.
Founded to eliminate the costly and complex barriers historically associated with precision location, Point One Navigation has built a unified platform that integrates GNSS corrections, telemetry, device management, and motion fusion software. Its Polaris RTK Network, Location Cloud, and Positioning Engine combine to deliver centimeter-level accuracy through a single end-to-end solution.
Point One’s momentum has increased significantly since its previous raise as it extended service coverage across North America, Europe, and Asia; established strategic partnerships with Totem and Orange S.A.; signed multi-year agreements with leading automotive and robotics manufacturers; launched the Location Cloud API; and integrated its positioning software directly into OEM and module partner products. Over the last year, the number of OEMs using Point One’s Physical AI technology has grown by a factor of 10.
The company continues to expand its global footprint as demand accelerates across industries, including autonomous vehicles, drones, logistics, manufacturing, agriculture, wearables, and emergency response. With this Series C funding, Point One Navigation plans to deepen its infrastructure density and enhance its developer-focused platform to support the next generation of machines operating in the physical world.
KEY QUOTES:
“For years, enabling Physical AI through precision location has been a powerful concept but painfully complex to implement in the real world. By combining dense, centralized infrastructure, intelligent software, and a developer-first API, we’re giving every OEM the spatial awareness to bring their platforms to life. This funding accelerates our mission to make precise location as universal as GPS itself.”
Aaron Nathan, CEO and Co-Founder, Point One Navigation
“Physical AI requires knowing exactly where you are down to the centimeter. Point One makes this level of accuracy accessible to any developer, from powering autonomous vehicles and drones to warehouse robots and emergency response. We’re excited to continue backing the team as they become the default location layer for the next generation of AI in the physical world.”
