As reported in public records reported — not modeled.

This issuer has a dense recurring filing history, so the chart groups filings by year. Solid bars are annual reported capital reported; hatched bars show the latest modeled value est. observed in that year. Use the toggles to overlay data labels and the niche-peer / market average value lines.

This looks like a recurring offering series, so a VC stage ladder would be misleading. Showing the filed offering sequence instead.

Showing first 24 of 54 filings to keep the sequence readable.

This issuer files recurring offerings, so the model treats stage labels as a loose sizing heuristic, not a clean VC ladder. The estimate anchors on reported filing amounts and dates, then applies benchmark dilution, survival, and markup assumptions. Directional, not a quoted figure.

Benchmarked against 3257 companies in Manufacturing. Each bar is a median (the middle company, not an average — outliers don't skew it). Two yardsticks: real money raised (reported on Form D) and modeled value (our estimate est.). These are whole-sector medians across all stages, except the per-stage row.

Raised more than 100% of sector peers (real $). Modeled value above 84% of peers (estimate).

This issuer files too frequently for VC stage labels to be meaningful, so rows are shown as initial/follow-on offerings est. instead of Pre-Seed/Seed/Series buckets.

Predictive signals are modeled est. from this company's own cadence and step-up, plus sector benchmarks — directional, not advice. Peer set and a CSV export live in your analyst workspace.

Officers, directors and promoters named in this company's public recordsreported — the people who run it (not its investors). "Also runs" counts come from name-matching across all records, so verify before acting.

Amyris, Inc. is an official record sourced from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). U.S. data is aggregated from SEC Form D filings.

Nearest neighbours across the whole database — matched on sector, stage and capital scale, and on shared operators (officers or directors named at both companies in public filings). A discovery shortlist, not a valuation cohort — verify before acting, the same way modeled figures are directional.

Matched by meaning, not labels — a local language model reads each company's name, sector and description and ranks the closest in that learned space. This catches look-alikes that cross sector boundaries; the structured list above explains its matches, this one trusts the text. Directional, like every modeled signal here.
