Series D round

US-based 3D Cloud by Marxent recently raised $7.5 million in a Series D round of funding.

This was led by Tampa-based entrepreneur and board member Arnie Bellini with additional support from Lee Arnold, Executive Chair at Colliers International Florida and a long time investor in the company. 

The round increased 3D Cloud by Marxent’s valuation to over $135 million. It has raised $42 million in total to date.

It has plans to open its 3D Cloud platform directly to independent interior designers and pros with innovations like artificial intelligence powered design automation, LiDAR room scanning integration, and self-service.

"With the Series D funding, we’ll be able to fast-track the development of our AI and design automation capabilities," says Beck Besecker, CEO and Co-founder at 3D Cloud by Marxent.

"Interior and outdoor design professionals are looking for modern, browser-based, and collaborative solutions and will love designing with 3D Cloud applications.”

“Our goal is to create easy to use tools that cater to the needs of homeowners, store associates, and design professionals alike. AI is the key to achieving this vision."

"The company has exceptional leadership, a massive product catalogue, top brands and retailers, and a compelling vision for bringing this tech to new audiences," says Bellini.

“Its solutions drive both topline growth and bottomline savings for retailers regardless of economic conditions. I’m excited to continue to support the team and their vision.”

“AI will drastically simplify aspects of the design process for independent design pros and enterprise retailers alike,” said Arnold.

"3D commerce combined with AI is clearly the next frontier in furniture and home improvement retail, and 3D Cloud by Marxent is at the forefront.”
