Notes
Cumulative primary funding through SoftBank's $40B round (March 2025) at a $300B valuation. Bottom-up sum of documented primary rounds: $1B founding pledge (2015) + $1B Microsoft (2019) + $1B Series (2021) + $300M Series (2023) + $10B Microsoft (2023) + $6.6B Series (Oct 2024) + expandCumulative primary funding through SoftBank's $40B round (March 2025) at a $300B valuation. Bottom-up sum of documented primary rounds: $1B founding pledge (2015) + $1B Microsoft (2019) + $1B Series (2021) + $300M Series (2023) + $10B Microsoft (2023) + $6.6B Series (Oct 2024) + $40B SoftBank (Mar 2025) = $59.9B. OpenAI's own March 2025 announcement stated "approximately $57.9B" — the ~$2B gap reflects OpenAI's exclusion of the 2015 founding pledge (most of which was never realized) from its cumulative figure. The October 2025 PBC restructuring at $500B valuation was a recapitalization / secondary-tender event, not a new primary round, so the total-primary figure was unchanged through that event. Superseded by the $122B March 2026 primary round (see f_QNOH7UIrtg).
