Company disclosure · 13 Dec 2024

Own blog: "$250M" Series A. The company states NO valuation on this page; the widely reported ">$2B" is press reporting, so valuation is bare. funding_total is bare too — the post states the round, not a cumulative total. Delivery test (§1.1): Liquid Foundation Models are the product — licensed to customers who embed them in their own devices.
