Khosla Ventures invests in Mara

Funding Provisional 93% confidence first seen

Mara announced a $7 million pre-seed round to advance its Spike counter-UAS platform from field testing to broad combat deployment, with the round led by Khosla Ventures. The article says the system is intended to scale to end-2026 ground-mounted deployments and 2027 vehicle and man-portable configurations. This matters because the financing supports distributed autonomous 360-degree interception designed to counter swarming FPV drones that can evade traditional counter-drone defenses.
