20 AI funding rounds announced in October 2026 are recorded here, totalling $823.9M. The largest was RapidCanvas at $29.0M. The median round was $11.0M.
Every round on this page meets two conditions before it is published: AI has to be the company's core product rather than something it uses, and at least two independent publishers have to have reported the round. A round carried by one outlet is not listed, however plausible it looks. Amounts are shown only where a source states them, converted to US dollars at the rate on the announcement date.
By stage: 2 series b, 1 series a, 3 seed. 14 did not disclose a stage. 1 of these companies has a listing in the directory.

Frequently asked questions
- How many AI companies raised funding in October 2026?
- 20 rounds that meet the bar on this page, totalling $823.9M. That is not every AI round announced in the month: a round is only listed once two independent publishers have reported it, so anything carried by a single outlet is held back.
- Where do these figures come from?
- Public funding announcements, each linked from the row it belongs to. Nothing is estimated and nothing is modelled. Where a company did not disclose an amount, the row says so rather than carrying a guess.
- What counts as an AI company here?
- One whose core product is the model, the agent or the AI software itself. A logistics company that uses AI to plan routes is a logistics company, and a business announcing that it will invest in AI is not an AI business. That line excludes several rounds a looser definition would have counted.
- Why are amounts in US dollars?
- So the monthly total means something. Rounds are announced in several currencies, and each is converted at the rate on its announcement date rather than today's, so a figure here does not move after the fact.
- Can I use this data?
- Yes. Cite Get365AI and link to this page. If you want the rows as a spreadsheet, get in touch and we will send them.
