Thinking Machines Lab Secures $2 Billion Seed Round Led By Andreessen Horowitz At $12 Billion Valuation

Thinking Machines Lab, the AI startup founded by former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati, has closed a massive $2 billion seed round led by Andreessen Horowitz, valuing the company at $12 billion. Backed by big names like NVIDIA, Accel, ServiceNow, CISCO, AMD, and Jane Street, the less-than-year-old startup is keeping its core projects under wraps but hints at an upcoming significant open-source release aimed at researchers and startups building custom AI models. Murati’s new venture, which has already attracted top talent from OpenAI, is seen as a serious contender in the race to build frontier AI systems.
