This week we continue our series on the top 5 VC-funded deals in AI.
This week our announcements are led by one deal exceeding the $100 million threshold.
The week’s top reported deal, per FinSMEs, came from London-based Quantexa, a decision intelligence company, which raised a $175 million Series F round in part to expand its North American presence and seek out mergers and acquisitions. The next biggest announcement came from the robotic massage space, where New York-based Aescape brought in an $83 million round. The top five also included companies in the fintech and e-commerce spaces.
Smaller funding raises that did not quite make our top 5 this week included announcements from the logistics, health care, and agentic fintech sectors.
