Mujin Raises $233M to Push MujinOS Toward Becoming the Global Standard for Intelligent Industrial Automation
Mujin, the Tokyo-based robotics company reshaping the future of industrial automation, has raised US$233 million in the first close of its Series D round—a mix of $133 million in equity and $100 million in debt that marks one of the largest robotics fundraises of the year. Led by NTT Group with participation from Qatar Investment Authority, Mitsubishi HC Capital Realty, and Salesforce Ventures, the investment brings Mujin’s total funding to $411 million as it accelerates its global push to redefine how robots operate in warehouses and factories.
The new capital centers on one key objective: scaling MujinOS, the company’s unified control platform that eliminates the patchwork of systems typically used to run industrial robots. Instead of relying on siloed hardware-specific setups, MujinOS provides a single intelligence layer that integrates robot arms, AMRs, storage systems, vision, motion planning, digital twin models, and warehouse execution into one coherent architecture. By standardizing perception, orchestration, and decision-making, the platform enables facilities to deploy automation more quickly and replicate it across additional sites with predictable performance—an enormous value as manufacturers and logistics operators seek reliability amid global labor shortages.
This funding will also accelerate Mujin’s most ambitious bet: turning its real-time digital twin into a live operational engine. Rather than functioning as a static simulation, Mujin’s digital twin continuously mirrors every movement on the warehouse floor—robots, AGVs, inventory, workflows—providing the kind of visibility that allows operators to spot issues early, optimize operations in real time, and maintain precise traceability across facilities. Mujin sees this as the next frontier of automation, enabling enterprises to manage entire networks of sites with a shared, always-synchronized intelligence layer.
Expanding Global Reach
With demand rising in Europe and North America, Mujin will use the new funding to expand engineering, service, and support teams while building a global network of certified system integrators capable of deploying MujinOS-powered solutions at scale. The company is planning a second close to bring in additional global investors, including existing backers such as Pegasus Tech Ventures and Accenture.
A Platform Aiming to Become the Global Standard
Founders Ross Diankov and Issei Takino emphasized that this raise marks a pivot from bespoke solutions to a fully product-driven company. Diankov described the round as validation that MujinOS is becoming the foundational architecture for the next era of automation, while Takino highlighted its role in addressing workforce shortages and enabling manufacturers worldwide to “compete and win.” Lead investor NTT Group echoed that sentiment, noting plans to pair Mujin’s robotic intelligence with NTT’s advanced computing infrastructure to tackle some of the most pressing productivity and societal challenges.
With momentum building and a unified platform at the core of its strategy, Mujin is positioning itself not just as a robotics provider but as the operating system for modern industrial automation—a vision this latest funding brings sharply into focus.
