Recently funded startups: the startups that just raised, updated every week
The startups that announced a funding round in the last seven days, the largest recent rounds, recently funded AI startups, and funding by stage and industry, with every amount linked to its announcement and the API calls that reproduce each list.
Recently funded startups are the companies whose latest funding round was announced in the last few days. On October 5, 2026, 259 startups on Recent Funding had announced a round in the previous seven days (since September 28, 2026), and 1125 in the last 30 days. The largest round of the week went to Helix Digital Infrastructure ($1B), followed by Maxwell Power ($800M) and GMI Cloud ($668M). This page is refreshed every week, so the lists are always the current ones.
Every amount below links to the announcement it came from, and every list is a call to the public API, shown with its parameters, so you can rerun it and get today's version.
How to get the list yourself
The API is public, read-only JSON, and no key is needed. The startups that raised most recently, newest round first:
curl "https://recentfunding.com/api/v1/companies?sort=announced&limit=25"
An excerpt of the response (the first two of the 25 companies, a few fields each):
{
"companies": [

"name": "Trebellar",

"raise_publisher": "digitalnewsasia.com",
"investors": [

}
],
"count": 25,
"next_offset": 25
}
announced_at is the date of the company's latest round, amount_usd its size in US dollars (null when the announcement gave no amount), and raise_source_url the announcement it was taken from. sort=announced orders by that date; stage, industry, crypto and min_raise narrow the list, and limit (up to 2000) with offset pages through it.
In JavaScript (browser or Node 18+):
const res = await fetch("https://recentfunding.com/api/v1/companies?sort=announced&limit=100");
const { companies } = await res.json();
for (const c of companies) console.log(c.announced_at.slice(0, 10), c.name, c.stage, c.amount_usd);
In Python:
import requests
data = requests.get("https://recentfunding.com/api/v1/companies",
params={"sort": "announced", "limit": 100}).json()
for c in data["companies"]:
print(c["announced_at"][:10], c["name"], c["stage"], c["amount_usd"])
A free API key is optional: create one at /account/ to see your usage. The full reference is in the API docs, and using the Recent Funding API covers paging and errors.

Request: the rounds endpoint lists every round announced since a date, so you can sort it by amount yourself. Set since to the first day of the window you want (the example is this post's first week):
curl -s "https://recentfunding.com/api/v1/rounds?since=2026-09-28&limit=500" | jq '[.rounds[] | select(.amount_usd != null)] | sort_by(-(.amount_usd | tonumber)) | .[:10] | map({name, stage, amount_usd, announced_at, source_url})'
/api/v1/rounds returns one row per round, so a company that announced two rounds in the window appears twice; the tables on this page show each company's latest round.
Recently funded startups by stage
In the last seven days, 52 startups announced a pre-seed round, 99 a seed round, 38 a Series A and 51 a Series B or later. Over the last 30 days:
| Stage | Companies |
|---|---|
| seed | 554 |
| pre-seed | 352 |
| series-b+ | 82 |
| series-a | 70 |
| unknown | 66 |
| stealth | 1 |
unknown means the announcement didn't name the stage (common for strategic, debt-and-equity or unlabeled rounds). The stage is the company's latest round, as reported.

AI agents are their own industry on Recent Funding (industry=ai-agents, 36 with a round in the last 30 days), as are developer infrastructure (infra-devtools) and security (security-privacy). The categories directory groups companies more finely, for example AI agents, foundation models and AI infrastructure.

Crypto companies are counted in their own industries (defi, payments-stablecoins, trading-markets and others): 59 of the startups that announced a round in the last 30 days are crypto startups. Add crypto=true to any request to keep only those, or see crypto startups that raised in the last 90 days.
Spotted in stealth before they raised
Some of these companies were on Recent Funding before their round was public: flagged as a stealth startup from early signals, then funded. 41 of the startups that announced a round in the last 30 days were flagged before that announcement.
| # | Company | Industry | Stage | Flagged | Latest round | Announced | Days from flag |

How the flags work, and how early they tend to come, is in stealth startups flagged before they raised.
How to read these lists
- A company appears once, with its latest round. If it announced two rounds in the window, the later one is shown.
- Dates are announcement dates, not closing dates. Rounds are often announced weeks after they close.
- Amounts are as announced, converted to US dollars. Rounds whose announcement gave no amount, or whose amount has no public source, are counted in the totals but left out of the tables.
- Stage and industry come from the announcement and the company's description and are sometimes wrong. Each company's page lists its rounds with their sources: open it from the table.
- New raises are imported every day from news feeds and funding announcements across all stages, so the lists here grow during the week; this page itself is rebuilt every Monday.
