AI systems are becoming part of how businesses operate day-to-day and how people make critical decisions. As that shift gains momentum, the standard for building these systems increases. Capability matters. So do judgment, safety, and clarity about how these systems should behave in the world. We are continuing to support the team at Anthropic because they build with discipline and quality and know how to earn trust over time.
We've closed our Series G, raising $30 billion in funding at a $380 billion post-money valuation, led by GIC and Coatue Management. This investment will allow us to deepen our safety research, continue innovating in product, and power our infrastructure expansion as we make Claude available everywhere our customers are. Today, our run-rate revenue is $14 billion. It has grown over 10x in each of the past 3 years, driven by our position as the intelligence platform of choice for enterprises and developers.

Fluency has raised a US$6M seed round led by Accel to solve the $600B enterprise AI problem. For decades, we hired brilliant people to move information from one system to another. To remember context that machines forgot. To make decisions that should have been automatic. Now, enterprises are rushing to deploy AI faster, but 95% of these initiatives will fail because companies can’t identify where it will actually yield ROI. Current enterprises AI deployments will fail because: 1. They have no way to universally map how their enterprise functions, with zero visibility it’s impossible to determine where AI will help 2. They rely on process mining, consultants, employee anecdotes to deploy AI. This misses 95% of context behind work which is essential for agents to actually function. That’s why Oliver and I built Fluency. We believe that humans will be able to solve at the highest level of abstraction while AI handles everything else. It is only possible if AI can be deployed on the right problems, the right workflows, with perfect execution. Fluency creates a living model of how work flows across your enterprise - capturing the context, decisions, actions and results that no system can see today. The understanding of how people concurrently work and think to solve the most challenging problems. This has enabled our customers Aon, PVH Corp. and HMH to identify where AI will deliver the highest leverage before spending a dollar, prove ROI with data on every AI initiative to their board, and optimize workflows org-wide. Today, we surface your best AI transformation opportunities, show you how to optimize them, and prove ROI in one platform. Tomorrow, we’re building towards the autonomous enterprise, where humans can solve the toughest problems in the world whilst agents handle all other tasks. Massive thanks to Abhinav Chaturvedi, Siddharth Prabhu, Accel, DST Global Partners, Carya, Mixture of Experts, Archangel Ventures, NextGen Ventures, Brad Tabone and all that support us. To the team: You’re building the AI foundation for the world’s most important companies, thank you. We’re hiring world-class engineers in San Francisco (data, full-stack, AI/ML) who want to build the future of enterprise work. DM me. If you’re a CEO, COO, CIO or leading AI/ digital transformation and tired of guessing which pilots will work - let’s talk. Looking forward to seeing you at our dinner series this year.

I spent so much time trying to stay on top of customer feedback, iterating on product, and closing the loop with customers at Treasury Prime - it's what separates good teams from great teams. But it's also exhausting. That's why I'm excited to share that we raised a $4.4M pre-seed with Accel and Inovia Capital to build Modem: an AI teammate that continuously ingests, understands, and acts on feedback so teams can ship faster. It's been game-changing for us, but let me know what you think. Signups are open. https://lnkd.in/dhftPzr9

We've just announced that we’re leading Vega's Series B. Founded by Shay Sandler and Eli Rozen, Vega is reimagining the legacy Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) market. Since we led their Series A last year, they’ve started working with Fortune 200s and global banks, established a commercial base in New York, and built a strong leadership team spanning New York and Tel Aviv, including Yonni Shelmerdine, Hadas Ofir Peled, Mike Doherty, and Ofir Nir. Read more from Andrei Brasoveanu about how a morning run with Shay in Central Park turned into a conversation about Vega’s ambitions and what comes next. ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/e7mhtWhS

As AI agents begin running workflows end-to-end, they’re becoming economic actors, spending money continuously and autonomously in ways our human-centric financial infrastructure can’t safely support. Sapiom is building the control plane for agent-initiated transactions, and we’re excited to lead their seed round. Welcome to the Accel family, Sapiom! https://lnkd.in/ebYMK8H9

For the past six months we've been building Sapiom in stealth. Today we're announcing what we've been working on — and a $15.75M Seed round led by Accel. The premise: over the last decade, billions have gone into scaling model intelligence. Almost zero into scaling access. AI agents can write code, but they can't buy the infrastructure to run it. They can plan a marketing campaign, but they can't pay for the SMS API to send it. They can design a landing page, but they can't provision the image generation to populate it. Intelligence without access is a brain in a jar. With Sapiom, AI agents can autonomously access and pay for services across the entire API economy. Capability = Reasoning × Access Models keep getting smarter, but if access stays near zero, trapped behind static integrations and human approval flows, effective capability stays near zero. Sapiom is the access layer. By unlocking what was previously impossible for agentic workflows, we’re enabling AI agents to move from reasoning and planning to autonomous action. Grateful to build alongside Accel, Gradient, Array Ventures, Okta, Menlo Ventures, Anthropic, Coinbase, Angel Invest, Formus Capital and Operator Collective 🔆 — with strategic angels from Shopify, OpenAI, Vercel, GitHub, Circle, and Mercury. Full thesis on the blog. Link in comments.

I’m thrilled to share some big news: LangChain has officially selected Aegis AI Security as their email security partner. 🎉 At AegisAI, our mission has always been to fight bad AI with good AI. As the threats from AI-generated #spearphishing to sophisticated #BEC attacks become more personalized and harder to detect, the old playbook of static rules and manual filters is no longer enough. LangChain is at the center of the AI revolution, empowering developers to build the next generation of intelligent applications. We're proud to protect the architects of this ecosystem so they can focus on what they do best. A huge thank you to Arthur Stromquist , Ryan Casupanan, Harrison Chase, and the entire LangChain team for their trust.

We just released Universal-3 Pro. And it's free for all of February. LLM-style control over transcription: not just keywords, but actual instructions: → "Be more verbatim, capture filler words" → "This is a medical conversation" → "Label speakers as doctor vs. patient" One prompt. Hundreds of calls. Consistent output. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/eEDdcd47
