- Sentient
Participated · Seed · Jul 2026
Sentient develops a decentralized AI infrastructure called GRID that connects more than 100 models, data sources and reasoning agents to enable compositional multi-model responses. Built products include Dobby (a family of open-source LLMs tuned for community-aligned values), Sentient Chat (an agent-aggregation interface) and Open Deep Search, which the team says outperformed closed alternatives on the FRAMES benchmark. The project issues the SENT token for staking, governance, service payments and contributor rewards to coordinate a distributed community of developers, data providers and infrastructure operators. Sentient was founded in January 2024 by Sandeep Nailwal, Pramod Viswanath and Himanshu Tyagi and has secured an $85M seed round plus a $42M grants/investment program for open AGI research, bringing total committed capital above $125M. The team emphasizes keeping advanced models and agents openly available and auditable rather than proprietary. Following a listing of SENT on a major exchange, the token jumped about 20% on July 9, 2026, an event the coverage characterizes as liquidity-driven and highlights execution and adoption risk as key determinants of long-term value.

Led · Equity · May 2026
Tomoland operates a Web3 platform focused on user-generated content, aiming to merge creator-driven content with blockchain-enabled ownership.

Its recent $2 million raise, led by Sky9 Capital with participation from multiple VCs and angels, is positioned to fund that product and ecosystem work. The reporting does not provide founding year, location, revenue, or user metrics.
