100-word summary
ScaleOps just closed a $130 million Series C led by Insight Partners, valuing the New York startup above $800 million. The company automates how cloud and AI systems allocate computing resources, cutting waste without human intervention. Adobe, Wiz, and DocuSign already use it. ScaleOps grew 350% year-over-year and tripled headcount in twelve months. It plans to triple staff again by December. The bet: as companies run more AI workloads, manually tweaking server capacity becomes impossible. Investors are backing tools that decide which machines spin up or down before engineers even notice the problem.
