[lumaril.com](https://lumaril.com) Company record · Updated November 10, 2026 · Presspool · https://presspool.ai/companies/lumaril-com ## Funding Latest announced financing: $66M, Series A, led by Elad Gil, announced October 27, 2026. - **$66M Series A**, announced October 27, 2026. Led by [Elad Gil](https://presspool.ai/investors/elad-gil). Re-ruled 10-30 hold. New proof: the company's own announcement on lumaril.substack.com (linked from lumaril.com), dated Oct 27, 2026: '$66M Series A at a $400M valuation, led by returning investor Elad Gil, with participation from Felicis, Koch Disruptive Technologies, Pax Ventures, and our previous seed co-leads Lux Capital and General Catalyst.' Pulse 2.0 independently reports the same amount and lead. (The SaaS News copies Pulse 2.0; WSJ returned 401.) AI basis: lumaril.com says the platform's Decide step is 'classical control methods and state-of-the-art AI and ML', and the post calls its product 'AI-enabled'. So AI does the platform's core work, not one feature. This is a borderline call, close to the autonomy precedent (its tagline is 'Intelligence for the physical economy'). Editor may reverse. Oct 27 falls in store week 10-26. Also reported: $400M valuation, $78M raised in total.
