Rune Technologies Closes $24M Series A to Deploy AI-Enabled Software for Military Logistics
Funding follows increased demand for Rune's flagship product, TyrOS, which transforms how the military tracks, predicts, and manages all aspects of logistics
ARLINGTON, Va., July 21, 2025 - Rune Technologies, which is revolutionizing military logistics through AI-enabled predictive software explicitly designed for the modern, contested battlefield, today announced $24 million in Series A funding. The round was led by Human Capital with participation from Pax VC and Washington Harbour Partners, as well as existing investors Andreessen Horowitz, Point72 Ventures, XYZ Venture Capital, and Forward Deployed VC.
"Our mission is to bring military logistics sophistication in line with the prowess of our fighting capabilities," said David Tuttle, Co-Founder and CEO of Rune Technologies. "We've seen significant demand from across the services for a product that can replace the whiteboards and spreadsheets that are currently used to track logistics operationally. This investment will allow us to accelerate our deployment of TyrOS to sustainers across the joint force."
Rune's TyrOS is built with edge-first architecture that represents a fundamental shift in military logistics technology. Instead of pushing data to distant servers for processing, TyrOS embeds intelligence directly at the tactical level where decisions get made. This bypasses the need for constant connectivity to remote servers and enables systems to operate independently and synchronize when communications are reestablished.
"Rune is solving the perennial problem of anticipating, planning and executing military logistics in dynamic, high-tempo and contested environments," explained retired Major General Duane Gamble, former Army G4. "Throughout my 37-year career, military logisticians spent virtually all available time on the science of logistics. TyrOS leverages AI/ML and world-class engineering to do the science, freeing up logisticians and commanders to focus on the art of warfare. It’s a game changer."
Coming from backgrounds across all branches of the U.S. military, Rune’s real-world experience with real-world battlefield conditions grants them a deeper understanding of logistical challenges. By bridging the innovation gap between Silicon Valley and military logistics, Rune deploys engineers alongside warfighters, making code changes based on direct warfighter feedback, at the speed of need.
"It's urgent that the Department of Defense keeps modernizing its core systems and software with the best technology available — and that's Rune, automating granular work so logisticians can focus on strategic decisions," says Ross Fubini, Managing Partner at XYZ Venture Capital. "We've invested in Rune twice in just a few months because it's clear they're making huge impact across multiple operational military units, and that this type of transformation is crucial right now."
Rune has deployed TyrOS under both U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps efforts to date, and will use the increased funding from this round to accelerate these efforts as well as expand into other U.S. military services. The company was also recently selected for the Palantir Startup Fellowship and announced an integration earlier this year with Palantir's Defense OSDK (Ontology Software Development Kit) to enable automated logistics capabilities from the tactical edge to the strategic layer, leveraging open architecture to bring the best capabilities to military logisticians and leaders.
This marks Rune's second fundraising round following a seed round announced in February and brings Rune's total funds raised in the past year to over $30 million.
