Modal @modal Oct 14

Today we're announcing that Modal has crossed $1B in annualized run rate, as well as raised a $750M Series D at a $15.75B valuation, led by @Accel.

Since our Series C, usage has tripled and we’ve grown more than 15x year-over-year.

We are deeply grateful to the developers and companies building on Modal. There's still so much more to build, and we can't think of a better time to be building software.
