CloudNC：https://www.cloudnc.com/ has secured $20 million in new capital to scale its AI precision machining technology across global supply chain networks.
The investment round was led by US venture investor Nimble Ventures, with participation from Calculus Venture Capital, Entrepreneur First, and LM Ventures, the venture capital fund of Lockheed Martin.
Founded in 2015, CloudNC operates from headquarters in London and an active production facility in Chelmsford. The company previously drew backing from Atomico and Episode 1 Ventures, alongside strategic partnerships with Autodesk and Lockheed Martin.
Precision component suppliers face pressures to balance tight engineering tolerances with compressed delivery schedules. CloudNC designs its lead software product, CAM Assist, to automate computer numerical control (CNC) programming—generating machining strategies and toolpaths from computer-aided manufacturing models to accelerate production runs.
The software shortens the transition phase between technical part design and factory production, allowing machinists to increase physical component output.
CloudNC reports that CAM Assist is now active across more than 1,000 machine shops globally, including several hundred facilities in the US. Confirmed commercial users include Lockheed Martin and Major Tool and Machine.
Theo Saville, CEO and co-founder of CloudNC, said: “Machine shops everywhere are under pressure to quote and program faster, and deliver more with the people and machines they already have.
John Burbank, founder of Nimble Ventures：https://www.nimble.vc/, added that automated CNC workflows will support “massive increases in onshoring of manufacturing and global production” for precision industrial supply bases.
CloudNC says it will direct the capital injection into go-to-market operations, technical support infrastructure, and partner activity across international regions.
CloudNC is expanding its software line with Quote Agent, an AI-assisted estimating tool scheduled for release later in 2026.
Preparing job estimates represents a major operational drag for manufacturing suppliers. Evaluating incoming technical drawings, calculating cycle times, and establishing part pricing remains heavily manual, exposing supply shops to administrative delays or miscalculated margins once components enter physical production.
Quote Agent applies AI to early-stage costing, enabling suppliers to return customer bids rapidly while standardising cost estimations.
“Quote Agent is a natural next step for CloudNC as we seek to accelerate global machining with AI,” says Saville. “CAM Assist already helps machinists get parts onto machines faster; Quote Agent will help shops assess new work, prepare quotes more efficiently and respond to customers with greater confidence.”
“We believe our AI can make quoting faster, more consistent and more scalable, helping manufacturers win more of the right work while keeping expert judgement firmly in control,” Saville added.
CloudNC is collaborating with Knox Systems：https://knoxsystems.com/ to achieve FedRAMP certification for CAM Assist.
The compliance roadmap aims to clear CAM Assist for deployment by US government departments, defence contractors, and aerospace manufacturers operating under federal data governance rules.
Authorisation, if granted, will permit public-sector and defence suppliers to deploy automated toolpath generation across regulated production workloads.
