Miami-based Doxx.net, which offers serverless peer‑to‑peer calling, messaging and file transfers for humans and AI agents, has secured a $38 million Series A round led by Andreessen Horowitz.
Miami‑based startup Doxx.net announced a $38 million Series A round led by Andreessen Horowitz, with participation from Animo Ventures and Focal.vc. The funding will finance the launch of the company’s open‑beta “Agentic Defined Networking” (ADN) platform, which promises server‑less, peer‑to‑peer (P2P) calling, messaging and file‑transfer capabilities for both humans and AI agents.
Doxx.net describes its ADN as a re‑imagining of internet architecture: a high‑performance, parallel network that lets users bypass censorship, retain privacy and control their online presence. By eliminating a central communications server, the platform delivers end‑to‑end encrypted voice, video, chat and file exchanges, while also allowing agents to lease IP addresses, configure firewalls and even set up networks on a user’s behalf.
The raise is significant because it backs a privacy‑first infrastructure at a time when AI agents are proliferating across consumer and enterprise applications. Secure, server‑less connectivity could become a prerequisite for agents that need to exchange data without exposing users to centralized surveillance or single points of failure. The backing of a16z signals confidence that such networking primitives will underpin the next wave of AI‑driven services.
Going forward, observers will watch the open‑beta rollout for signs of developer uptake and real‑world performance. Integration with emerging AI platforms, adoption by privacy‑focused users, and any regulatory response to decentralized communications will shape Doxx.net’s trajectory. The company’s ability to scale its encrypted P2P mesh while maintaining low latency will be a key metric for investors and competitors alike.
