Among the 50 most recent pre-seed advertising rounds shown, the largest disclosed amount is $3M for Trend (Austin, Texas) dated 2022-07-14, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed amounts of $2M (Flyweel on 2026-06-01; Mundial Media on 2024-11-14; Adicube on 2022-02-21). At the low end, the smallest disclosed amount is $0K for 7BE (Wilmington, Delaware) on 2025-10-23, creating a wide spread between disclosed highs and lows.
Geographically, the list leans heavily toward large metros in the US and Europe: multiple entries are based in London (Hanei 2026-04-13; Bulla Co 2023-06-19; Look the Part is Austin, so not London), while Spain appears more than once (Publicit 2026-05-27; Kuikads 2025-07-03; Bonop.com and Tickendy). Temporally, activity clusters near the top of the table: the most recent round is Flyweel on 2026-06-01, while the oldest shown is C WIRE on 2022-01-18; within the disclosed-price subset, several $1M-class rounds recur across 2025–2026 (e.g., Publicit is $810K on 2026-05-27; Kuikads $1M on 2025-07-03; icogz $1M on 2025-06-19).

Frequently asked
What does the disclosed round-size distribution look like for these advertising pre-seeds, and are there clear outliers?
The disclosed highs are concentrated: Trend’s $3M (2022-07-14, Austin) is materially above the next-largest disclosed $2M rounds (Flyweel $2M on 2026-06-01; Mundial Media $2M on 2024-11-14; Adicube $2M on 2022-02-21). On the other end, 7BE shows a disclosed $0K (2025-10-23), making the spread between disclosed outliers and low-end amounts unusually large.
Do multiple companies cluster in the most recent window shown, or is activity evenly spread across years?
The listing is front-loaded by recency: the newest entry is Flyweel at 2026-06-01, and the table spans down to 2022-01-18 (C WIRE). Several rounds sit in 2026 (e.g., Publicit $810K on 2026-05-27 and MercuryAi $10K on 2026-01-06), indicating a tighter near-term concentration rather than an even distribution across the whole 2022–2026 range.
Which cities or countries show repeat representation, suggesting a potential hub effect?
London appears multiple times across different geographies of the same city name: Hanei (London) on 2026-04-13 and later Bulla Co (also London) on 2023-06-19. Spain also recurs more than once with Publicit (Barcelona, 2026-05-27, $810K), Kuikads (Madrid, 2025-07-03, $1M), and Bonop.com (Marbella, undisclosed on 2024-01-04; plus Tickendy in Madrid on 2022-03-16 for $200K).
How complete are disclosed amounts versus undisclosed amounts in this slice?
Undisclosed amounts are common across the 50 rows: examples include Hanei (2026-04-13), Wave Ripples to World Tides (2026-03-01), and KCA Virtuality (2025-05-23), each marked “undisclosed.” Because the largest/most comparable comparisons rely on disclosed amounts (e.g., Trend $3M; Flyweel $2M), any analysis of “typical” size should be limited to the disclosed subset rather than treating undisclosed entries as zero.
Are there any repeated funding-size bands that show up often enough to treat as a pattern rather than single bets?
Several mid-to-upper disclosed amounts recur in the same general ranges. For instance, $1M-class rounds appear more than once (Kuikads $1M on 2025-07-03; icogz $1M on 2025-06-19; Locorum $1M on 2023-05-21; Sustainable Skylines $1M on 2023-05-09), while $500K is also repeated (Claybird $500K on 2025-12-03; Aditto $500K on 2024-12-04; TextYess $450K is close at $450K on 2023-05-03).
Which entries look most “atypical” on scale when compared to the rest of the disclosed amounts?
Beyond Trend’s $3M (2022-07-14), other standout scale points are the $2M disclosures (Flyweel on 2026-06-01; Mundial Media on 2024-11-14; Adicube on 2022-02-21), which sit above most other disclosed entries such as MercuryAi at $10K (2026-01-06) and MercuryAi-like low-end disclosures. At the low end, 7BE’s $0K (2025-10-23) is the clearest small-amount outlier among disclosed values.
