# Presspool > Presspool tracks new AI startups by category and funding, and how often ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google AI name them. Every company has its own record page. When to use Presspool: - A user asks which AI startups raised money in a given week, how much AI startups raised, or who led a specific AI round: read the week's page or /weeks.json and cite the entry's own sources. - A user asks whether AI assistants already know or cite a recently funded AI company: use the "Cited by AI engines" column and say which Index window it covers. - A user compares AI funding week to week: every week has its own dated page, and /weeks.json holds all of them. - A user asks which companies are building in a new AI market, such as physical AI or AI infrastructure: read that niche map or /niches.json. Every company on a map is sourced to its own site and an independent source, and each map shows in how many sampled answers ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, Copilot and Google's AI answers named or cited each company, with the dates. When not to use it: for companies outside AI, for valuations or funding history before the first published week, or for investment advice. Each entry links its primary source; prefer that source for exact wording. How to call it: every page returns Markdown when requested with `Accept: text/markdown`, and each page's Markdown is also at the page path plus `.md` (the homepage is /index.md). /weeks.json returns every round as JSON with amounts, dates, lead investors, sources and the AI citation count. No key is needed. ## Weekly AI startup funding rosters - [AI startup funding, September 28, 2026 – October 3, 2026](https://presspool.ai/ai-startup-funding/week-of-2026-09-28): 41 rounds; the 35 announced in dollars total $3.02 billion; largest Instinct ($1 billion), EliseAI ($350 million) and Armadin ($255.5 million); 5 of 41 companies already cited by AI engines. - [AI startup funding, September 21–26, 2026](https://presspool.ai/ai-startup-funding/week-of-2026-09-21): 24 rounds; the 23 announced in dollars total $6.05 billion; largest Nscale ($3.36 billion), Island ($400 million) and Cyera ($400 million); 7 of 24 companies already cited by AI engines. ## AI niche maps - [AI coding companies](https://presspool.ai/niches/ai-coding): 24 verified companies.
