SE3 raises $30 million Series A led by Accel for spatial AI

The Munich company will grow its engineering, commercial and operations teams while expanding across Europe and opening a UK office.

SE3 raised a $30 million Series A led by Accel, with participation from Keen Venture Partners, Lakestar and Seedcamp, the company announced on 12 November 2026. The financing will support hiring across engineering, commercial and operations roles as SE3 scales its autonomous-systems software.

The company will strengthen its presence in Germany and Ukraine, open an office in the UK and expand further across Europe. It says its immediate focus remains defence, with robotics, emergency response and other civilian applications planned for exploration from 2027.

SE3’s software combines sensor data from drones and ground vehicles into a shared 3D understanding of the environment. It runs on the devices themselves and integrates across manufacturers, allowing customers to add spatial autonomy to platforms they already operate.
