Thunder Compute has developed a GPU virtualization layer over four years and has run it in its own cloud with over 10,000 users. The software aims to increase GPU utilization by enabling multiple workloads to share a single GPU rather than assigning one workload per GPU. The company is a small San Francisco-based team publicly led by Carl Peterson and Brian Model. With the newly raised capital, Thunder plans to partner with enterprises and cloud providers to scale virtualization across larger GPU fleets. The announcement did not disclose revenue, valuation, or additional operating metrics.

Watt is developing signal infrastructure aimed at powering AI agents by making behavioral and relationship data accessible in plain language. Its graph reportedly contains 120,000 behavioral signals across 15 trillion relationships, covering 250 million identities and 60 million businesses. The company says this data surface lets a single Signal Engineer accomplish work that previously required a 200-person data team. Watt's three founders met through The Lighthouse and continue to operate from its offices, with ties to the Nashville community. The startup recently raised a $4.3M pre-seed to advance its product and scale operations. Leadership frames the effort as the start of a long-term plan to put valuable signals into the hands of builders and to grow into a large company.

Chord builds an AI platform designed to power modern commerce operations by unifying data, operational context, and execution into what it calls a "context graph," a living operational memory of metrics, rules, decisions, constraints, and trade-offs. The company says its platform enables brands to generate insights and immediately take action, compressing workflows that previously required multiple teams into minutes, and that teams are increasingly using Chord in place of traditional BI tools. Chord was built by the team behind Glossier and says customers using the platform collectively represent over $1 billion in annual revenue; named customers include Mr. Beast, Ritual, Ruggable, Rodan + Fields, and Blue Bottle Coffee. The company reports organic expansion within customers and that Copilot usage has tripled as adoption shifts from legacy analytics. With the new funding, Chord plans to accelerate its agent infrastructure development and scale across mid-market and enterprise commerce and retail brands generating $20M–$1B in revenue.
