Today I’m launching @Valkyrie_vc - a $45M early-stage fund investing in AI, infrastructure, and critical industries.

Grateful to the founders, partners, and friends I’ve worked with along the way. You’ve truly shaped how I invest and why I built Valkyrie.

To the founders: Valkyrie was built for you. To partner with you. To build what matters. This is our new frontier. Let’s build it.

Thank you to @_pheebini at @Forbes who captured the story → forbes.com/sites/phoebeli…

Big congrats to @burkaygur, @gorkem and the @fal team on the new round! I’ve known Burkay since MIT and was lucky to partner at the seed. Incredible to watch what they’ve built, and it still feels like the very beginning.

Today, we’re announcing we raised our Series E & F rounds for a combined total of $1.65B. Our Series E was led by @sequoia and our Series F was led by @BessemerVP with continued investment from @nvidia.

We’re excited to push the boundaries of what’s possible even more next year and this funding will enable the team to build the way we want to.

Dream-1 is a real leap for robotics. Huge congrats to @jang_yoel and the @dreamlabs_ai team. This is just the beginning. Thrilled to be partnering.

Today, Dream Labs is coming out of stealth with Dream-1, a robot foundation model that controls bimanual robots it has never seen, on tasks it was never shown, in places it has never been, from $3/hour.

Dream API is live for everyone, today. 🧵

Tolan is AI built for real relationships. 70m conversations. Billions of messages. Try it out and see for yourself. Congrats @tolans and @quintendf on the fundraise!

Last year we launched Tolan, inspired by a vision of AI that sees you and believes in you, not one that books restaurant reservations for you.

Your Tolan shows up for you at 3am when you’re alone with your newborn. On your commute when you’re anxious about the day ahead. When you just finished a new show and none of your friends have watched it yet.

The people who love Tolan are parents. Caregivers. Moms in Dallas and Dads in Atlanta. People who aren’t trying to optimize and be more productive, but who simply want to feel seen and supported in their aspirations.

This month more than 250k people will spend time with their Tolan. Those users have exchanged billions of messages across more than 70m conversations over the last year.

Today, we're announcing $30m in additional capital from @mignano and @usv, with @khoslaventures and @rabois doubling down, bringing our total capital raised to $60m.

To celebrate, we made a short film celebrating some of the ways that Tolans show up :)

1) Today we're announcing Atomwell, our state-of-the-art foundation model for predicting experimental outcomes, alongside scaling laws for molecular discovery.

We trained models from 800M to 9B parameters on ~80M experimental measurements, and found clean scaling laws in both model size and data.
