Press and Media Kit
We compute every figure on this page when you request it. Every one carries a link to the rows it came from, with the same filters already applied. Nobody types these numbers in by hand, so anyone can check a number you quote today against the tracker, now or later. The most recent collection ran Aug 15, 5:57 PM UTC.
Numbers You Can Use Right Now
Each row states one period. The link beside it opens the tracker narrowed to exactly those rows. The number and the evidence behind it are one click apart, rather than a claim and a promise.

| This Month | 1,347 | 1,260 | 433 | $44.5B | See the rows |

Dollar totals cover the funding updates that state an amount in US dollars. We leave out amounts stated in another currency rather than convert them at a rate nobody published. The dashboard prints the exact coverage beside every money figure it shows.
Context For This Year
- The country with the most updates in 2026 is India, with 6,453. See those rows. Read a country total as filing volume, not as how much is happening there. One mandatory annual return can account for most of a country's rows, and the dashboard names the collector when it does.
- The industry with the most updates in 2026 is Technology, with 1,728. See those rows.
- The largest single raise recorded in 2026 is OpenAI at $122B, dated 31 March 2026. See the raises, largest first.
- 17,154 of the 26,852 updates we hold come straight from an official filing rather than from a report about one. See only those.
The Archive
Every month keeps its own preset view, so a figure quoted last quarter still resolves to that quarter's rows. We recompute the figures rather than freeze them. A correction on this tracker appends a revision instead of overwriting a record. A frozen copy would preserve a number we have since corrected, and present it as though it still stood. What makes an older figure answerable is the corrections log, which says what changed and when.

What This Tracker Does Not Do
We state these here rather than leave you to discover them after you have quoted us. None of this confesses a defect. Each is a decision, and each one costs something real.
- It does not track layoffs. The AI Layoff Tracker collects redundancies and job cuts instead. We read from it rather than duplicate them here, so there is one source of truth per fact. Do not cite this page for a layoff figure.
- It does not estimate. No figure appears unless its source states it in those words. When an update's source names no headcount, we label it as not stated rather than infer one. When an amount comes in a currency we cannot read as US dollars, we leave it out of the totals rather than convert it.
- It does not claim to be complete. We measure coverage rather than assert it. Every week we grade the collectors against a fixed set of real events, assembled from public sources without ever looking at our own database. We publish the result, including the categories where we come off badly. See what we miss, measured.
- It does not read every country evenly. 121 countries appear in the data, and that is where employers are, not where we have connectors. A country appearing here is not a claim that we cover it. See which sources actually run.
- It is not fully automated. About 99% of it runs without a human: collection, classification, validation, deduplication and publishing. Three things stay human: repairing a scraper when a site changes, judging whether a novel source is worth reading, and assembling each new recall test set. The last of those is human by design.
