Dense history compressed: 39 filings shown as 8 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.

Showing first 24 of 39 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 3256 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 98% of sector peers (real $). Modeled value above 98% 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.
