Cloudsmith, a cloud-native software artifact management platform, secured $72 million in Series C funding. The round follows a $23 million Series B closed in 2025.
Cloudsmith builds infrastructure for managing and protecting software components across development pipelines. The platform addresses the growing complexity of software supply chain management as organizations increasingly rely on cloud-native architectures.
CEO Glenn Weinstein announced the funding exclusively to Axios. The capital injection represents significant momentum for the artifact management sector, which has gained attention amid heightened focus on software security and dependency management.
The company's Series C brings total disclosed funding to at least $95 million. Cloudsmith competes in a market that includes established players like JFrog and Sonatype, alongside cloud providers offering native artifact services.
The funding comes as enterprises face mounting pressure to secure their software supply chains and automate artifact distribution across distributed teams and infrastructure.
