Mavria, a Houston-area startup, has raised a total of $130 million to scale the factory production of its modular data centers. A $100 million funding round led by Paradigm valued the company at $1 billion after the transaction, with AMP PBC, Critical Frontier, Liquid 2 and Dream Ventures among the investors. Its first product line, Terrain, consists of standardized 5 MW blocks combining power, cooling and IT infrastructure for high-density AI workloads. The first block, Terrain 01, is currently being produced in Houston, but neither its customers nor its deployment location have been disclosed. The factory-built model aims to accelerate AI infrastructure deployment amid construction and power constraints, but the company must show that it can move quickly from a single unit to repeatable mass production.
