Groundup.ai, a company known for its advanced AI used in maintenance, has signed a major contract worth over US$10 million—the biggest deal in its history. This shows a shift from traditional maintenance methods to more automated, AI-driven systems.
The company has been growing quickly, supported by a US$4.25 million Series A funding round in April 2025. The round was led by Tin Men Capital, with support from Wavemaker Partners, SEEDS Capital, and HIVEN.
This funding has helped Groundup.ai improve its technology and expand into new regions, showing strong investor confidence in its ability to lead the next phase of industrial innovation (Industry 5.0).
After a tough selection process, Groundup.ai secured this deal to deploy its AI-based maintenance solution across multiple important sites.
Although the client’s name is not shared for strategic reasons, the deal shows strong commitment from one of the world’s major asset-heavy companies.
“This isn’t just a win for Groundup.ai; it’s a massive signal for the future of Industry 5.0,” said Leon Lim, CEO and Founder of Groundup.ai. “Global industries are no longer satisfied with just knowing when a machine might fail. They want a system that acts as a virtual expert to tell them how to ensure it never does. Closing our largest deal to date validates the vision we shared during our Series A. The world is ready for Cognitive Maintenance that reasons, diagnoses, and guides.”
“From heavy industries to advanced manufacturing, this milestone isn’t more than just code. It’s about finally bridging the gap between raw and action on the ground,” said Yong Tai, Sales Engineer and Founding Team Member of Groundup.ai. “Our mission has always been to turn data into decisions,” added Alex Wong, COO and Co-Founder of Groundup.ai. “This contract allows us to execute that mission at an unprecedented scale, proving that Cognitive Maintenance is the key to unlocking billions in hidden value for the global manufacturing, maritime, and critical infrastructure sectors.”
