Startup Funding Intelligence

Startup funding history & investor database

Startup Funding Intelligence is The CODEW’s structured database of who received funding, when they received it, how much was raised, and who provided the capital. It connects three elements: startups, their funding history, and their investors.

Guiding principle: Startup Company Intelligence tracks the companies. Startup Funding Intelligence tracks their financing history. VC Firm & Investor Intelligence tracks the investors.

EDITORIAL MISSION

• Document historical funding rounds, disclosed amounts, and investor participation
• Distinguish announced funding from completed transactions where known
• Distinguish round amount from cumulative funding — never double-count
• Preserve original currency; show converted amounts separately
• Mark undisclosed amounts, valuations, and unconfirmed information clearly

Audience: Founders, venture investors, LPs, corporate development, startup operators, and professionals tracking funding rounds, valuations, and investor activity.

2. Funding by Industry & Technology Segment

• Enterprise & Developer: Steady Series A-B activity. AI copilots, developer platforms, and vertical SaaS lead new formations
• Fintech: Selective growth rounds. Payments, stablecoins, and prediction markets attract large follow-ons
• Health: AI scribes, clinical AI, and evidence platforms lead early-stage health funding
• Climate & Energy: Capital-intensive. Fusion, geothermal, storage, and grid attract growth and project finance alongside VC
• Defense & Space: Rising. Defense AI, drones, and reusable launch attract sovereign and strategic capital
• Robotics & Quantum: Long-horizon. Humanoids, autonomous driving, and quantum hardware attract concentrated, thesis-driven funds

3. Funding by Investment Stage

• Pre-seed: Idea to prototype. Angels, accelerators, pre-seed funds
• Seed: Product-market fit search. Seed funds, solo GPs, angels
• Series A: Repeatable go-to-market. Early-stage VC lead
• Series B: Scale. Multi-stage VC, growth participation
• Series C+: Category leadership. Growth, crossover, corporate VC
• Growth Equity / Late-stage: Pre-IPO scale. Crossover, sovereign, corporate
• Debt / Convertible: Venture debt, SAFEs, convertible notes. Shown separately from equity rounds
• Grant / Other: Government grants, non-dilutive funding. Never counted as VC round amount

Strategic Analysis

• Who captures value — startups raising mega-rounds, or investors leading them?
• How does strategic capital change independence, distribution, and exit options?
• Why can round amount matter less than valuation, dilution, and runway?
• How do repeat lead investors signal quality vs. concentration risk?
• When does a large round help scale, and when does it hide weak unit economics?
