8090 Labs raises $135M for enterprise AI coding

AI coding is moving from individual developer productivity into the much stricter world of enterprise software teams.

What happened

8090 Labs raised a $135M Series A led by Salesforce Ventures, with participation from WndrCo, Craft Ventures, The Production Board, Launch and several angel investors.

The company is building Software Factory, an AI coding agent designed for corporate programming teams. Chamath Palihapitiya is also taking the CEO role.

Why it matters

The AI coding market is no longer only about faster autocomplete or solo “vibe coding.” Large companies need tools that can fit into existing engineering workflows, with stronger controls, review processes and audit trails.

That makes enterprise-grade coding agents a different category from consumer-friendly coding assistants. The buyer is not just the individual developer — it is the organisation responsible for shipping secure, maintainable software.

The bigger picture

AI coding tools are becoming a full-stack enterprise software category. The next wave of competition may be about governance, deployment controls, integration with internal codebases and trust in agent-generated work.

8090 Labs’ large Series A shows investors still see room for new players, especially if they can make coding agents feel safe enough for corporate environments.
