Watchtower Labs Raises $35 Million Seed Round Led by Shield Capital and Conviction to Build AI Military Planning Platform

Watchtower Labs, a Seattle defense startup, raised $35 million in seed funding led by Shield Capital and Conviction (with Founders Fund participating) to build an AI-native decision‑support platform for military logistics and operational planning. The software combines simulation, optimization and AI to model scenarios, propose courses of action, and let commanders query results in natural language while keeping human responsibility for decisions.
