Liquid Instruments, a company that builds software-based testing tools, has raised US$50 million in its Series C funding round. The round was co-led by Keysight Technologies and the National Reconstruction Fund Corporation. As part of the deal, Keysight will also work with Liquid Instruments to develop new AI-powered testing solutions.
Liquid Instruments uses a different approach by combining many testing tools into one flexible platform. This allows users to create and use their own custom measurement tools instead of relying on separate devices.
With this system, tasks that used to take months can now be completed in just minutes, making advanced testing technology faster and easier to use.
“Keysight has long set the standard for precision, innovation, and trust in its solutions for the most complex engineering challenges, and its investment is a strong validation of our approach,” said Daniel Shaddock, CEO and co-founder of Liquid Instruments. “As systems grow more complex, our users need more flexible, AI-driven tools, and this new partnership with Keysight will accelerate that shift.”
“The industry is shifting toward software-first and AI-enabled architectures,” said Joaquin Torrecilla, Vice President of Software Transformation at Keysight Technologies. “Liquid Instruments extends this by using software and AI to directly shape hardware behavior, creating more adaptable instrumentation. Together with Keysight’s extensive portfolio, this enables more scalable and integrated test solutions.”
“Liquid Instruments exemplifies the kind of high-impact innovation that strengthens sovereign capability while competing on the world stage,” said Mary Manning, CIO at the NRFC.
Founded in 2014 by Daniel Shaddock, Liquid Instruments is changing how testing and measurement are done by using software-based tools along with powerful hardware.
Its platform lets engineers design, test, and use systems faster and more easily by combining many instruments into one flexible device. This makes the process more efficient and accurate.
The company supports thousands of users around the world, including those working in aerospace and defense, semiconductors, and quantum research.
