$10M seed round, use of funds, and valuation context

The Ask

$10M Seed Round

18-24 months of runway to go from early access to $10M ARR and Series A.


Use of Funds

Category % Amount What It Funds
Engineering 30% $3M 3-4 senior engineers (architecture, AI/ML, infrastructure), compute
Go-to-Market 35% $3.5M Head of Growth, dev advocate, content, community, partnerships
Infrastructure 25% $2.5M AI compute, multi-region deployment, sandbox fleet, databases
Operations 10% $1M Legal, finance, strategic reserve

Engineering is 30%, not 50%. We use Vitto to build GoGrab Space — that's both our strongest proof of product and our capital efficiency advantage. The savings go to GTM and infrastructure, where human judgment and real spend matter most.

Milestone-Tied Deployment

Months Spend Milestone
1-6 $3M Public launch, 1,000 customers, $1M ARR
7-12 $3.5M Marketplace, white-label, enterprise pilots, $5M ARR
13-18 $3.5M Scale to $10M ARR, Series A

Valuation Context

The AI Seed Market in 2024-2025

A $10M raise for an AI company at the intersection of agents and platform building is below the median.

Comparable Trajectories

Company Seed Latest Valuation Timeline
Lovable $15M $6.6B 10 months
Bolt.new $7.9M $700M 2.5 years
Cursor Early stage $29.3B 3 years
Cognition $21M $10.2B 18 months
Sierra AI $110M $10B 2 years
Harvey AI $5M $11B 3 years

Lovable — our closest comp — went 440x from seed to Series B in under 12 months, generating disposable prototypes. We generate persistent, production-grade platforms with a deeper technical moat.
