OpenAI Secures $122 Billion Funding, Valued $852 Billion
On March 31, 2026, OpenAI said it closed a record funding round with $122 billion in commitments, lifting its post‑money valuation to $852 billion. The round was co‑led by SoftBank and included investors such as Andreessen Horowitz, D.E. Shaw, Amazon and Nvidia; OpenAI reported $2 billion in monthly revenue and $13.1 billion last year. The company remains unprofitable as it prepares for a potential IPO.
Scoring Rationale
Unusually large, credible funding round with broad industry implications and official investor commitments; scores high on novelty, scope, credibility, and relevance. No freshness penalty (published today); slight moderation because company remains unprofitable and must justify valuation.
