New Funding Propels Company Towards Rapid, Sustained Growth

AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Today, OpsLab announced the company closed a seed fundraising round totaling $5 million, led by Cultivation Capital and joined by Storm Ventures. Completing this raise during a period of economic uncertainty underscores the strength of the company's fundamentals, as well OpsLab's market opportunity.

OpsLab provides smart assistants to solve operational planning, tracking and recovery problems at scale. Our solutions, built with operations research and machine learning, tackle reactive and predictive aspects of problems like scheduling, routing and dispatch, and automate away the most complex parts of solving such problems. These solutions are not hypothetical, they're proven.

OpsLab is incredibly fortunate to have the support of our partners at Cultivation Capital," said Arun Nair, Founder and CEO at OpsLab. "With this seed round, OpsLab will continue to solve tough operational problems for our customers ? from helping the Department of Defense address the pilot shortage to increasing combat mission readiness across the U.S. Air Force ? while also scaling and growing our suite of products and solutions. We could not be more excited about the future work that this funding will enable and support."

"Air logistics and flight scheduling has been a challenging issue for decades, and OpsLab has demonstrated remarkable perseverance with their platform designed to manage mission-critical resources efficiently," said Brian Matthews, Cofounder and General Partner at Cultivation Capital.
