BlueCava, Inc. has raised $85M over 26 rounds; too few niche peers to rank its valuation yet.
Raised $85M across 26 disclosed rounds, last modeled as Recurring offerings.
Valued on the technology profile — its sector's growth and survival benchmarks differ from the market default, so the same raise is worth more or less here.
Last raise 10.9 yr ago; this sector typically re-raises about every 13 months.
Latest round stepped up 6.5× from the prior — scaling.
Synthesized from the figures below est. — every claim rests on a number shown on this page. Valuation uses the technology sector profile.
Analyst read est. — computed against this company's niche peers in the same era. Inputs shown; not a quoted figure.
Program ended
Last raise 10.9 yr ago; this sector typically re-raises about every 13 months.
For a recurring offering issuer, long silence usually means the offering program is inactive or ended; it is not proof the legal entity is defunct.
Procedural diagnosis est. — rule-based common-sense checks over the filing pattern, issuer name, activity cadence, and surfaced operating evidence.
Recurring offering issuermedium confidence
BlueCava, Inc. behaves more like a recurring private-offering issuer than a conventional venture-backed operating company.
Issuer structure
Program-like
Frequent filings and follow-ons read more like a securities offering program than discrete startup rounds.
Lifecycle
15.8 yr record
Peak capital year was 2012 with $27.1M across 10 filings.
Market position
ahead of 96% of Other Technology peers
Capital scale is ahead of 96% of Other Technology peers; modeled value is above 87% of peers by modeled value. Large capital with mid-pack modeled value can signal an issuer/program profile rather than operating-company growth.
Valuation reliability
Lower applicability
Stage/dilution valuation models are weakest when the issuer is broad-sector, recurring, or vehicle-like.
Operating evidence
Sparse
No clear CEO/founder/principal role is surfaced, so operating-company confidence is lower.
Data quality
Consistent
Canonical totals and visible filing detail are broadly aligned.
What triggered this
27 dated financing filings, averaging about 2 months apart.
No clearly named CEO/founder/principal role in the public records surfaced here.
No verified homepage on the profile yet.
Capital program peaked in 2012: $27.1M across 10 filings.
Largest single filing was $10.1M on 2013-07-11.
How to read the page
Read this less like a startup funding journey and more like a capital-raising program.
Stage-based valuation and peer labels have lower applicability for this pattern.
The more important signal is lifecycle: repeated filings ended years ago, so current activity needs outside confirmation.

Amount raised vs valuation, by year
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.
Annual capital raised · realLatest value in year · estCumulative funded · real
Dense history compressed: 27 filings shown as 6 yearly buckets. Hover a bucket for filing count, annual capital, and latest modeled value.
The line shows cumulative reported funding over the period; + labels show new capital added between points when there is room. Toggle on-bar figures, plus the niche-peer and market averages, to read this company against its cohort. Benchmarks are modeled medians.
