How it compares to the market
Benchmarked against 254 companies in Energy Conservation. 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.
Total raised — vs sector median (real $, all stages)▲ 67× above median
This company$167.3M
Sector median$2.5M
Latest round — vs other Series B rounds in sector (real $, this stage)▼ 0.3× of median
This company$4.2M

Modeled value — vs sector median (estimate, all stages)▲ 3.8× above median
This company$102.0M
Sector median$27.1M
Raised more than 99% of sector peers (real $). Modeled value above 82% of peers (estimate).
Niche peers — same stage & era
A tighter cohort than the sector chart above — only companies at the same stage (Series B) that last raised in the same ~3-year era, ranked by modeled valueest. (not money raised). This is the exact set the analyst read compares against, so a like-for-like cohort is what makes "over/under-valued" meaningful.
Not enough valued peers in this cohort to chart positioning.
Stage is inferred from round size est., not reported on the filing — a round's dollar size maps to a bucket: Pre-Seed <$1.0M · Seed $1.0M–$4.0M · Series A $4.0M–$15M · Series B $15M–$40M · Series C $40M–$100M · Series D+ $100M–$400M · Growth/Late >$400M.
