Loop Raises $95 Million to Expand AI Platform for Supply Chain Operations
Loop, an AI platform built specifically for logistics and supply chain operations, closed a $95 million Series C funding round led by Valor Equity Partners. The company will use the capital to expand its team, add product features, and deploy its platform across more enterprise customers.
The funding reflects growing demand for tools that can untangle fragmented supply chain systems. Companies still rely heavily on disconnected legacy platforms-ERP systems, warehouse management tools, transportation systems-that don't communicate with each other. This fragmentation makes it difficult for operations teams to see the full picture of their supply chains, let alone make quick decisions when disruptions occur.
Loop's core technology, called DUX, is a family of AI models designed to process documents, structure data, and execute workflows across multiple systems. The platform consolidates operational and financial data from different sources into a single source of truth.
Where Loop's Platform Operates
Loop currently handles several operational areas:
- Supplier management and trade compliance
- Warehouse and inbound logistics operations
- Procurement workflows
- Working capital optimization
The platform integrates with standard enterprise systems including ERP, TMS (transportation management), WMS (warehouse management), and order management platforms.
Current Customers and Use Cases
Loop works with companies including Outset Medical, Clemens Food Group, Olipop, Kendra Scott, and Dot Foods. The company said its platform helps these organizations reduce costs, improve visibility across operations, and optimize working capital.
Matt McKinney, Loop's CEO and co-founder, said in a statement: "We see every day how much pressure companies are under to manage supply chains through constant disruption, and how often critical decisions are still being made on top of fragmented data and brittle systems."
Why Now
Supply chain volatility has intensified. Tariffs, supplier diversification, and rising energy costs have compounded operational complexity for most enterprises. Many operations teams still lack visibility across their financial and operational data, making it harder to respond to these pressures.
Antonio Gracias, founder and CEO of Valor Equity Partners, said Loop has "turned one of the hardest parts of the supply chain into an advantage for their customers" by converting fragmented data into intelligence that improves cost, processes, and working capital.
The funding round also included participation from 8VC, Founders Fund, Index Ventures, J.P. Morgan Growth Equity Partners, and Tao Capital Partners.
