Xoople raises $130M, becoming the leading AI Earth intelligence startup
Madrid-based startup Xoople has secured $130 million in a Series B funding round, cementing its position as the most well-funded company in the AI Earth intelligence sector. This latest investment brings Xoople’s total funding to $225 million, marking a significant milestone in the company’s mission to provide real-world data insights.
Addressing a critical data gap
As businesses grapple with an overwhelming amount of digital data, they often lack reliable, real-time information on physical changes occurring globally. With challenges ranging from disrupted supply chains to climate risks and infrastructure failures, this gap has become increasingly urgent in the age of artificial intelligence. Xoople aims to close this gap by building a platform that generates accurate, real-world data to enable smarter decision-making.
Xoople’s CEO, Fabrizio Pirondini, described the company’s vision, stating: "Every major computing era creates a new system of record; those that define that system become the economic centres of that era. CRMs gave companies a system of record for customers. Cloud platforms create systems of record for software and data. We are building the system of record for the physical world in the AI era with Xoople. After seven years developing our system in stealth, we are incredibly excited to begin commercialisation in Q2 and start scaling up that capability in the market."

Expansion plans with new funding
The Series B round saw participation from prominent investors, including Nazca Capital, MCH, CDTI (Government of Spain), Buenavista Equity Partners, and Endeavor Catalyst. The newly raised capital will be channelled towards scaling Xoople’s platform, enhancing satellite capabilities, and accelerating market adoption.
Additionally, the funds will support deep integration with existing enterprise tools, enabling businesses to seamlessly access actionable, real-world insights without requiring changes to their workflows. This step is expected to further broaden the accessibility and utility of Xoople’s Earth intelligence solutions.
Building "Earth’s system of record"
Founded in 2019, Xoople refers to its platform as "Earth’s system of record", which captures physical changes occurring across the planet. The company’s satellite-powered technology provides highly accurate and reliable scientific data that supports industries in optimising supply chains, monitoring infrastructure, improving agricultural forecasts, managing insurance risks, and enhancing disaster response systems.
Even before its official commercial launch, Xoople has been collaborating with government bodies and Fortune 500 companies through a private preview programme. These organisations have already begun applying Xoople’s insights to real-world challenges, highlighting the transformative potential of its technology.
From stealth to scale
After seven years of development in stealth mode, Xoople is now entering the commercial phase of its journey. The launch of its Early Access Programme marks the first step towards wider market adoption of its offerings. Reflecting on the company’s achievements, Pirondini stated: "We are incredibly excited to begin commercialisation in Q2 and start scaling up that capability in the market."
The company’s progress follows the recent establishment of its global headquarters in Tres Cantos, Madrid, five months ago. With its growing capabilities and robust funding, Xoople is poised to redefine how industries access and utilise real-world data, driving efficiency, mitigating risks, and fostering sustainability while delivering economic impact.
