Smack Technologies, co-founded by two MARSOC veterans, has raised $32 million in seed and Series A funding to scale the first frontier AI lab for national security and deliver Decision Dominance to the U.S. Department of War.
EL SEGUNDO, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Smack Technologies, the first frontier AI lab for national security, today announced it has secured $32 million in funding through Series A to deliver Decision Dominance to the U.S. Department of War (DoW), its allies, and partners. Geodesic Capital and Costanoa Ventures led the Series A round, with participation from Point72 Ventures, Felicis, First In, Scribble Ventures, Bloomberg Beta, Washington Harbour Partners, Palumni VC, Fulcrum Venture Group, Anomaly Fund, and Fortitude Ventures.

As the first frontier AI lab for national security, Smack Technologies is building domain-specific AI models powered by deep reinforcement learning for the singular purpose of either deterring WWIII or winning it if necessary. The company’s dual product suites, Omega and Alpha, are designed to fundamentally break down decision-making silos within the DoW, enabling campaign-informed planning in seconds across all time horizons: one to six months in the future, one to four days in the future, and right now.
