NavVis raises USD 85M series D round to supply the Data Foundation for physical AI

Munich, Germany, August 6, 2026 – NavVis secures a USD 85m investment round, led by US private equity firm The Jordan Company (“TJC”) as well as existing shareholders Yttrium (together with a consortium of industrial Family Offices), KOZO KEIKAKU ENGINEERING Inc. ("KKE") and Cipio Partners. The Munich-based company plans to use the capital to build its massive spatial data engine and accelerate the AI product roadmap.

More than a billion square meters scanned, processed and distributed in 2025 alone. Physical reality made known, trusted, and actionable. Fueling the future of physical AI in industry and construction.

NavVis is the spatial data platform for the built world. NavVis was founded on the conviction that operating the built world needs a productivity boost: From complex construction projects to the largest factories and infrastructure. Providing the spatial data foundation to physical assets accurately, instantly, and at 10% of the former cost will unlock trillions of dollars in global productivity.

Today, NavVis combines survey-grade reality capture 10x faster than traditional methods with NavVis IVION, a collaborative enterprise cloud platform that turns spatial data into shared, trusted, always-current spatial twins.

More than a billion square meters of the world's most complex industrial plants, construction sites, and buildings have been added to the NavVis platform in 2025 alone, reducing rework and downtime, and forming the foundation for automation, analytics, and AI-driven decision-making at scale.

Over 150k users in engineering, maintenance and construction teams rely on NavVis data and systems: Reducing downtime of automotive assembly lines, accelerating data-center construction or shortening maintenance shutdowns of refineries. Other customers use NavVis data for planning of next generation robotics roll-outs or for the training of industrial foundational models.

By now more than 1,500 customers in more than 50 countries trust NavVis’ spatial data solutions among them the biggest names in automotive, construction and the process industry including BMW, Volkswagen, Toyota, Mercedes-Benz, ExxonMobil, BASF, Henkel, Bosch, KION, and SIEMENS. The Company also holds strong partnerships with leading technology players such as SAP, NVIDIA and Autodesk.

NavVis plans to invest the funds raised into the next generation of technology and infrastructure required to scale spatial data turnover by another order of magnitude and into the AI layer required to make spatial data semantic, actionable and accessible - for millions of operators as well as to the robots and agents that will bring physical AI into construction and industry.

NavVis Co-Founder and CEO Dr. Felix Reinshagen:
"Our mission is to keep the physical and digital reality synchronized for the world’s most valuable assets. Our customers are the most demanding operators on earth. And they are trusting us with billions of square meters of spatial data of their most mission critical infrastructure. We have raised this round to do even more: More scalability, more intelligence and ultimately more productivity for the underlaying assets. At the same time, we will broaden our market presence with a strong focus on the US market where we have been scaling the fastest in recent years."

NavVis Co-Founder and CTO Dr. Georg Schroth:
"Acting in the physical world has always meant planning against drawings no one fully trusts. We changed that. NavVis captures any factory, plant or building at survey-grade standards in days, and holds it as the System of Record for industrial reality data: one governed, always-current record that every team, every tool and every AI system can build on. This round takes us further: next-generation capture, a deeper intelligence layer, and an open platform for the physical AI ecosystem."

TJC Partner Robert D. Redmond:
“NavVis has built category-defining technology, a deeply loyal customer base, and a team with the vision to redefine how the physical world is digitized. NavVis exemplifies what we look for in our Industrial Technology investments: a superior technological solution serving the world’s most demanding industrial operators. We are proud to partner with the NavVis team at this inflection point and invest in continued innovation and outstanding product experience for their customers.”

Yttrium Partner Dr. Axel Krieger:
“NavVis is one of the rare physical AI companies to reach real scale. We're proud to have backed this journey from its earliest days and reinforce our partnership with this round.”

KKE Partner Shota Hattori:
“We sincerely congratulate NavVis on the success of this series D round, which marks a major inflection point as NavVis IVION becomes the intelligent system of record for physical reality data. Since our business partnership began in 2015, we have walked alongside NavVis for over 10 years as an early-stage partner. We are very proud to work together to accelerate the development of a global physical AI ecosystem through our strong partnership and by sharing our extensive experience and insights into the Japanese market.”

About NavVis
NavVis is the spatial twin platform for the built world. NavVis was founded on a single conviction: that the people who build and operate the physical world deserve to know exactly what that world looks like — accurately, instantly, and always. Today, NavVis combines 10x faster, survey-grade mobile reality capture (NavVis VLX and NavVis MLX) with an enterprise spatial twin platform (NavVis IVION) that turns captured data into shared, trusted, always-current digital reality. More than two billion square meters of the world's most complex industrial plants, construction sites, and buildings now live on the NavVis platform — reducing waste, rework, and downtime, and forming the foundation for automation, analytics, and AI-driven decision-making at scale.
