The seed round was led by Visionaries with participation from firstminute capital, Sequel, and Illusian.
"The best operators don’t wait to be asked. We built Cody on the same principle — an agent that learns about your business, sees what needs doing, and delivers outcomes"
The pre-seed round was led by founder Bradley Jones and backed by angels from Aligned Syndicate.
"More than 1,500 structured funding applications have gone through ThatRound’s matching workflow. Of the deals our AI engine surfaces to investors, two in three result in an intro request. And every single founder whose application doesn’t progress receives specific feedback on why — on fit, not a standard rejection. That second part shouldn’t feel remarkable, but in early-stage fundraising, it does. The fact that founders find that level of transparency unusual tells you everything about how the market has been working until now."
Andreessen Horowitz led the Series A round to support product development and network growth.
"A CV is a poor proxy for what someone is truly capable of. Ethos helps people to see the full shape of their expertise and where it fits in an AI-transformed economy – acting as their agent, opening doors they didn’t know existed, and giving companies a far more precise way to find the people they actually need. AI is reshaping the labour market faster than our tools for valuing human expertise can keep up. Ethos is built to change that,"
The $1bn valuation round was led by Symbotic to support the development of fast-charging power solutions for autonomous systems.
"Nyobolt is enabling the always-on, always-moving infrastructure that physical AI demands. The enterprises deploying autonomous systems at scale can’t afford downtime, swap time, or power flickers. Our technology delivers a powerful trifecta: improved performance, exceptional durability, and a more sustainable operation, enabling a new generation of machines to run harder and smarter."
