Detail see below, interesting how many seed and series A are there, skewed by mega redounds but the data is open

@fingertips It is an another .com bubble

 

[fingertips]

@flozfz No doubt. Would be interesting to see when it bursts. Here is what the number looks like over time

@shellyeve One of these two things has productivity gains and value add and one does not

@fingertips No one’s raising 8m pre-seed this is bs

@terrenzio46 Data is here, median is 2.5M https://www.frontieroptic.com/ai-hype-train, skewed by elon's mega raise

@terrenzio46 Data is skewed. Elon's xAI had raised $135M which I think is counted here as the maximum pre-seed. If you take that out, the average is about $3.6M. There would be similar outliers. The median ig would mostly be below $1M.

 

[fingertips]

@jcphan47 Ye you are right median is 2.5m

@fingertips Thanks. Interesting, seems low at first glance given the amount of series an and series B start-ups. I mean what kind of runway does 2.5 million really by you at that stage. Obviously it depends on the kind of company, but that money can be burned really quickly.

@fingertips Great for AI, even greater for non-AI Startup investors as that’s where 6/10 would succeed in building a profitable business model.
