As reported in public records reported — not modeled.
Solid bars are reported offering amounts reported; hatched bars are the modeled post-money valuation est. — both on one shared scale so you can read raise-vs-worth at each round directly. Use the toggles to overlay data labels and the niche-peer / market average value lines.
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.
Stages are modeled from round size (public records carry no series label). No record for: Pre-Seed, Seed, Series A, Series B — the company may have raised it under a different exemption, merged it into an adjacent record, or skipped it. Sequence completeness: 20%.
Round size and date are reported; the stage label is inferred from round size (latest is Series C — a $40M–$100M round). Valuation is modeled from stage benchmarks. Directional, not a quoted figure.
Not enough modeled valuation points to chart a trajectory.
Benchmarked against 8525 companies in this sector. 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 100% of peers (estimate).
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.
