THE SIGNAL IN AI VENTURE
The Signal Source for AI Venture
Silicon Valley Technology Review (SVTR) is a Silicon Valley–based global technology innovation and venture platform built around the SVTR AI Venture Database.
LIVE DATA · DATABASE
Metrics are pulled live from the SVTR AI Venture Database and update daily. As of 2026-10-21
Where the data comes from
Funding events come in two tiers, confirmed and rumored: rounds reported only by media without official confirmation are labeled rumored and excluded from stats; they become confirmed after an official announcement or cross-confirmation from multiple sources.
Every funding event carries a source link and date, traceable to the original report or an SVTR weekly issue. Sources include official announcements from companies and investors, leading tech and venture media, and regulatory and exchange filings; community submissions are used only for cross-checking, never as sole confirmation.
Market events are scanned daily and human-reviewed before entering the database. Undisclosed amounts are marked as undisclosed, never invented.
