Salesforce Ventures Just Led a $135M Round in the Company Building Custom Software to Replace Packaged SaaS — With Chamath as CEO
8090 raised a $135M Series A led by Salesforce Ventures for its 'Software Factory,' a governed multiplayer platform where coordinated AI agents build and change enterprise software under human oversight, plus a delivery business that designs, builds, hosts, and operates custom systems for regulated-industry enterprises. Chamath Palihapitiya stepped in as CEO. Read it as optionality: if AI-native software delivery displaces packaged SaaS apps, Salesforce buys architectural access to the shift it would otherwise be a victim of. Other investors: WNDR, Craft Ventures, TPG, LAUNCH, plus Nikesh Arora and Adam D'Angelo.
