Dirac, a manufacturing technology company, has raised $10.7 million in funding, marking a significant milestone for the company’s mission to modernize American industry. This financial boost comes as reshoring and revitalizing domestic manufacturing have become strategic imperatives for both economic and national security.
The new capital is fueling the launch and expansion of Dirac’s BuildOS platform—an automated system for creating and managing smart work instructions. BuildOS stands out as the first of its kind, converting complex engineering files, such as CAD and BOMs, into dynamic, interactive work instructions that capture vital knowledge from senior technicians and make it accessible to all engineers and operators. By automating this process, Dirac empowers manufacturers to overcome labor shortages and skill gaps, thereby preserving the hard-earned expertise of seasoned workers as they retire.
Early adopters in aerospace and industrial sectors have already seen dramatic gains: work instruction creation time has plummeted from three days to just two hours, while process standardization has reduced costly errors. BuildOS is bridging the gap between design and shop floor execution, offering manufacturers a competitive edge in efficiency and repeatability.
A strategic partnership with Siemens further accelerates Dirac’s momentum. Together, they are integrating Dirac’s technology into Siemens’ digital manufacturing portfolio, delivering enhanced efficiency and smarter production planning. This collaboration amplifies the impact of Dirac’s platform, bringing intelligent automation to a broader array of industries.
With $10.7 million in new funding and the support of a global partner, Dirac is unlocking a new era for American manufacturing, where innovation and intelligence redefine what’s possible on the factory floor.
KEY QUOTES:
“We don’t have a labor crisis; we have a context crisis. You can’t reshore production if nobody remembers how to build. That’s what BuildOS is for. It turns engineering intent into repeatable execution and tribal knowledge into institutional knowledge, automatically.”
“Our edge isn’t just speed. It’s repeatability. BuildOS gives every engineer, technician, and team the ability to build something once, and then build it right every time after that.” In doing so, Dirac aims to relight an industrial engine that’s missing its wiring diagram.”
Dirac CEO and founder Filip Aronshtein
“America is investing billions in industrial capacity—but without platforms like Dirac’s BuildOS, we’re just recreating the same bottlenecks that made offshoring attractive in the first place. BuildOS gives manufacturers the intelligence layer they’ve never had to make reshoring successful. We backed Dirac because they’re giving manufacturers the tooling to compete on intelligence, not just incentives, and re-architecting American manufacturing from the ground up.”
Trae Stephens, Partner at Founders Fund
“Dirac has built the first and only automated work instruction platform.”
“The partnership with Dirac enables us to provide additional efficiency to our customers. Initial implementations of our integrated products have already led to improvements in work instructions generation, optimized manufacturability and more agile production planning. Based on these results, we will expand the partnership and deepen the integration of the Dirac platform into our digital manufacturing portfolio.”
