Limitless Labs raises $20 million Series A to bring AI into the factory floor
Israeli startup targets automation of CNC manufacturing workflows.
Limitless Labs (formerly LimitlessCNC) has raised $20 million in Series A funding, led by Dell Technologies Capital and Square Peg, with participation from Grove Ventures, Meron Capital, and Kinetica. The round brings the company’s total funding since inception to $27.3 million.
Limitless Labs is developing an AI platform for the mechanical manufacturing industry, designed for the design and computer-aided manufacturing of precision mechanical parts. The company’s technology is based on an AI model trained on the physics of metal cutting, the geometric structure of design files, and the real-world constraints of industrial manufacturing machines.
The model powers an AI agent that integrates into the existing workflow of manufacturing engineers and CNC programmers. After loading a design file into CAM software, the agent analyzes the part geometry against the limitations of the target machine and plans all stages of production, from cutting tool selection to generating toolpaths under optimal cutting conditions, while reducing programming time by up to 50%.
Limitless Labs was founded in 2024 by David Priev, Assaf Peleg, and Shahaf Finder. Preiv and Peleg are graduates of Unit 81 who developed engineering solutions and plugins for complex 3D software, while Finder is a doctoral researcher in machine learning and deep neural networks at Ben-Gurion University.
Since its Seed round, the company has moved from early pilots to active production deployments with some of the world’s most advanced companies in aerospace, defense, and automotive, including Blue Origin, Cadillac Formula 1, and ISCAR. The company has also signed a partnership with Sandvik’s Cimatron, which has approximately 30,000 active CAD/CAM users worldwide.
The funding will be used to expand operations in the United States, continue developing the company’s AI model toward full automation of CNC processes, and grow its development center in Tel Aviv. The company is expected to double its headcount over the coming year.
"The manufacturing world doesn't just need more automation, it needs a better way to capture and scale the expertise that still lives inside the heads of a relatively small number of experienced machinists," said David Priev, Co-founder and CEO of Limitless Labs. "We built Limitless Labs to work inside the CAD/CAM systems manufacturers already use, helping teams standardize best practices, reduce programming bottlenecks, and free senior programmers to focus on the hardest work, without giving up control. We believe the next major AI platform will be built for the physical world, and that starts with giving manufacturers a way to scale their best knowledge across every new part and every new engineer."
