Aitan, a defense technology company founded by Udi Oster and Daniel Almog, has emerged from stealth after raising $41 million in a round co-led by Deep33 and Dell Technologies Capital. The financing brings its total equity raised to $54 million, with participation from Gokul Rajaram, Benjamin Ling and Kevin Weil. Aitan describes its model as Robotic Sovereignty-as-a-Service, providing governments with infrastructure to field, maintain and continuously upgrade unmanned weapon systems. Its edge-AI robotic systems have been used by the Israel Defense Forces and Israeli national security agencies since 2023, logging more than 500,000 combat hours across command and control, swarming and autonomous navigation missions. The company recently secured a joint contract for the IDF's next-generation attack-drone command-and-control platform, as well as critical design contracts for robotic weapon systems, and has won similar contracts abroad. Aitan was built on technology developed by Israeli startup eyesAtop, acquired by Oster and Almog in 2025. It employs roughly 50 people in Ramat Gan, with additional operations in New Jersey, and plans to expand in the United States while pursuing European and Asian markets. The founders previously served in Unit 8200 and founded Tapingo, which Grubhub acquired for $150 million in 2018. Aitan was named after Oster's brother Eitan, a captain in the Egoz commando unit who was killed during Israel's ground operation in Lebanon in September 2024; the name also refers to the Hebrew word for resilience.
