Who raised on Tuesday 8 September 2026
9 rounds in the trade press, about $52.41B between them. 1 tech company filed a Form D, $100M sold. The first list comes from the trade press. The second comes from Form D, the filing a company makes with the SEC within fifteen days of selling securities, whether or not it says a word in public.
Who just took money
Technology and software companies that sold securities inside the last 45 days and filed the paperwork that says so. The filing is public the day it lands. For a lot of these companies it is the only public record of the round there is.

$100MForm DOntoAI is an independent AI research and development company exploring how humans and intelligent agents can flourish together.ontoai.com
Restricted to the industry groups a venture-backed technology company files under, which on Form D means Other Technology, Computers, Telecommunications and Business Services. Funds, SPVs, property partnerships and offerings open to non-accredited investors are excluded, as are offerings whose first sale was more than 45 days ago. Amounts are the total sold to date on that offering, which can cover more than one tranche. Where an outlet is named we found coverage of that round in the feeds we index. Where none is named we did not find any, which is a limit of what those feeds reach and not evidence the round went unreported.
Announced in the press

Raised, and no launch behind it?
A funding round is the one moment a company gets attention it did not have to buy. Most of it is spent on a press release nobody reads. We run the other version.
