{"slug":"ai-and-dev-tool-funding-p6d3u3","name":"AI and dev tool funding","task":"Find funding rounds announced in the LAST 14 DAYS by artificial intelligence, developer tooling, data infrastructure, security and fintech-infrastructure companies, from pre-seed through Series C. Each finding must be ONE round announced by the COMPANY itself or by the LEAD INVESTOR: the company's own blog or newsroom post, or the lead fund's own announcement. MUST-HAVES: it names the company; it states the AMOUNT raised; it names the ROUND (pre-seed, seed, Series A, B or C); it names the lead investor; and it carries a date inside the 14-day window. Give the valuation and what the company actually does whenever the post says. Say if the round is an extension or a bridge, because that is a materially different signal from a priced up-round. Skip Crunchbase, Tracxn, PitchBook and CB Insights profile pages, weekly and monthly funding roundups, news aggregation of an announcement when the announcement itself exists, 'top funded startups' listicles, accelerator batch announcements, and anything outside the window. Lead with the company, the amount, the round, the lead investor, and what the company does.","interval_minutes":360,"digest_mode":"6hourly","clone_count":0,"view_count":11,"follower_count":0,"following":false,"owned":false,"published_at":"2026-07-28T19:05:35.065161Z","running":false,"clone_recommended":true,"findings_total":649,"findings":[{"id":"fnd_f70c6bd21f3a","title":"devcuration.substack.com","url":"https://devcuration.substack.com/p/gumshoe-ai-pre-seed-round/comments","source":"devcuration.substack.com","summary":"Newsletter comments page, not a first-party announcement; names no lead investor and carries no verifiable date.","relevance":12,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T19:06:55.821885Z"},{"id":"fnd_ae56bc7a8bc3","title":"GSBuilds Digest: Climate Deals, AI Seed Rounds, and Multiple Acquisitions","url":"https://gsbuilds.substack.com/p/gsbuilds-digest-climate-deals-ai","source":"gsbuilds.substack.com","summary":"Newsletter digest bundling multiple deals rather than one first-party announcement; no lead investor or verifiable date.","relevance":3,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T19:06:55.333232Z"},{"id":"fnd_d08a98823a88","title":"march 2025s pre seed ai startups","url":"https://botmemo.substack.com/p/march-2025s-pre-seed-ai-startups","source":"botmemo.substack.com","summary":"Monthly roundup listicle of 35 pre-seed rounds from March 2025; roundups are excluded and it is over a year old.","relevance":3,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T19:06:54.843607Z"},{"id":"fnd_730910499390","title":"Matia Raises $21 Million To Build Unified AI Data Infrastructure","url":"https://ventureburn.com/matia-raises-21-million/","source":"ventureburn.com","summary":"Third-party news write-up of the Matia Series A, dated Feb 2026 and therefore outside the required window.","relevance":12,"published_at":"2026-02-10T00:00:00Z","created_at":"2026-08-08T19:06:54.354867Z"},{"id":"fnd_e9720e0e4c98","title":"Matia raises $21M to make data infrastructure invisible - Refresh Miami","url":"https://refreshmiami.com/news/matia-raises-21m-to-make-data-infrastructure-invisible/","source":"refreshmiami.com","summary":"Local news outlet coverage of the Matia round, not a first-party post, and dated Feb 2026 outside the window.","relevance":12,"published_at":"2026-02-10T00:00:00Z","created_at":"2026-08-08T19:06:53.866314Z"},{"id":"fnd_178dbd5c6c55","title":"Matia raises $21M Series A to unify data infrastructure for AI production - Tech Startups","url":"https://techstartups.com/2026/02/10/matia-raises-21m-series-a-to-unify-data-infrastructure-for-ai-production/","source":"techstartups.com","summary":"Third-party news coverage duplicating the Matia announcement; dated Feb 2026, outside the 14-day window.","relevance":12,"published_at":"2026-02-10T00:00:00Z","created_at":"2026-08-08T19:06:53.377298Z"},{"id":"fnd_9f141cfca118","title":"Matia Closes $21M Series A to Scale Unified Data Infrastructure for the AI Era","url":"https://theaiinsider.tech/2026/02/12/matia-closes-21m-series-a-to-scale-unified-data-infrastructure-for-the-ai-era/","source":"theaiinsider.tech","summary":"Third-party tech blog coverage of the Matia round, and dated Feb 2026, roughly six months outside the window.","relevance":12,"published_at":"2026-02-12T00:00:00Z","created_at":"2026-08-08T19:06:52.888153Z"},{"id":"fnd_81aa49ac3c5f","title":"Matia Raises $21M Series A to Scale Unified Data Infrastructure for the AI Era","url":"https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260210977689/en/Matia-Raises-$21M-Series-A-to-Scale-Unified-Data-Infrastructure-for-the-AI-Era","source":"businesswire.com","summary":"Company press release naming Matia, $21M, Series A and lead Red Dot Capital, but dated 10 Feb 2026, far outside the 14-day window.","relevance":45,"published_at":"2026-02-10T00:00:00Z","created_at":"2026-08-08T19:06:52.398776Z"},{"id":"fnd_3d6bb9bee6fe","title":"Artificial intelligence Startups Venture","url":"https://news.crunchbase.com/venture/cursor-financing-ai-coding-automation/","source":"news.crunchbase.com","summary":"Crunchbase News page (excluded source) covering a Series D, which is outside the pre-seed to Series C range.","relevance":2,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T19:06:51.909970Z"},{"id":"fnd_fe14f0049234","title":"coding assistant cursor raises 2 135844219","url":"https://finance.yahoo.com/news/coding-assistant-cursor-raises-2-135844219.html","source":"finance.yahoo.com","summary":"Third-party Yahoo Finance news coverage rather than a first-party post; stage unstated in excerpt (Series D scale) and no verifiable date.","relevance":8,"published_at":null,"created_at":"2026-08-08T19:06:51.421246Z"}]}
