Coverage: a tracked sample, not a census

Our logging grew sharply through 2026, so the number of rows per month mostly reflects our coverage, not the market. It also leans toward larger, well-reported rounds. Use the medians and shares below for comparisons, and do not present row counts as market deal counts.

Round Size by Stage

Median disclosed round size in US dollars for every round in the funding-rounds file, grouped by stage. Rounds reported in other currencies are counted but left out of the median.
