What “cited by AI engines” means here
The Machine Relations Index asks ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Google AI Mode and Google AI Overviews a fixed panel of buyer questions on a recurring schedule and records which websites each answer cites. A company counts as cited when its own website appeared as a source in at least one recorded answer between May 10, 2026 and October 18, 2026 (release mri_score_v2.1+2026-10-18+380d7c3b11dc). The panel asks buyer questions across 24 industry categories, not questions about these companies by name, so “not yet” means no recorded answer cited the company's site. A company whose market sits outside those categories can be absent for that reason alone.
Questions
- Which exactly stated USD rounds were largest the week of October 5, 2026?
- TypeSafe AI, $870 million (Series A), SignSplit, $400 million (Seed) and Arena, $200 million (Series B).
- How much did AI startups raise the week of October 5, 2026?
- The 62 AI rounds confirmed here: 53 announced in dollars; 51 exactly stated USD rounds total $2.92 billion; 2 qualified or unstated USD amounts excluded from totals and rankings. 9 rounds were announced in another currency and are listed as announced, not converted.
- Do AI answer engines already know these companies?
- 4 of the 62 companies had been cited in at least one AI answer recorded by the Machine Relations Index between May 10, 2026 and October 18, 2026: TypeSafe AI, Stuut, Hadrian and Manus. A funding announcement does not by itself put a company into AI answers.
How this list was built
Rounds come from public announcements. Candidates came from a funding-announcement feed and the daily funding reports named on the method page; every entry was confirmed at its own sources. Each entry links the two sources that confirm it: the company's announcement and one outlet, which settle the amount and investors, or two independent outlets that agree on the amount and the lead, or on one investor as the only backer. The company's own words describe it as AI or as built for AI. The round type is printed as announced, or as not disclosed when no source states it. Full method.
Changes
- October 19, 2026: Added Donut Robotics (¥300 million): Robotics & Automation News and DealStreetAsia both name Charm Care Corporation as the round's only backer and agree on the amount, so it qualifies on the two-outlet path; it is printed as sole investor named, not as a lead.
- October 19, 2026: Removed DEEPX and Donut Robotics: each round was confirmed only by two outlets, neither naming a lead investor, and a round confirmed by outlets alone needs both to name the same lead.
- October 19, 2026: Added Valon ($150 million Series D): its own release names the investors and HousingWire reported the round. A lead investor is required only when two outlets, not the company, confirm a round.
