3DR is a drone technology company that pioneered open-source autopilot hardware before pivoting to enterprise software through its Site Scan platform for construction, engineering, and mining teams. 3DR's Twitter Score is 8.3 out of 1000 as of October 2026, ranking #110,056 among 493,476 tracked accounts.
3DR was co-founded by Chris Anderson and Jordi Muñoz, with the company starting in 2009 selling drone components before developing the open-source-architecture Solo consumer drone. Solo production was halted in 2015 following manufacturing, quality-control, and demand-forecasting problems, and around that same period the company began a deliberate shift away from drone hardware toward enterprise software.
3DR raised a $30 million Series B, announced in September 2013, with Foundry Group, True Ventures, O'Reilly AlphaTech Ventures, and SK Ventures participating. A Series C, initially $50 million and later expanded to $64 million as announced in April 2015, was led by Qualcomm Ventures for the initial financing and WestSummit Capital for the expansion. In April 2017, 3DR announced a $53 million Series D led by Atlantic Bridge Ventures, combining new equity and conversion of debt to equity. Additional backers across its funding history include Mayfield, Shea Ventures, SanDisk Ventures, and the Autodesk Forge Fund.
3DR acquired connected-gaming company Sifteo in 2014, bringing its team into the organization. The company's flagship Site Scan product has since been integrated into Esri's software portfolio as Site Scan for ArcGIS, extending its reach within the drone and reality-capture space. 3DR's account has 118,129 followers as of October 2026 and 4,657 posts. The account has been mentioned by 57 accounts, with 608 total mentions.
