Disclosed funding levels in Newark-area AI skew heavily toward a single outlier: Duality Technologies raised $30M on 2021-10-05 (Series B), far above the next-largest disclosed rounds of $10M (Contlo on 2024-03-05) and $8M (Hippo Video on 2023-02-15), while several other listed rounds are $500K or lower (Hexa and Interfaze, both $500K on 2026-06-16; SpaceZero $10K on 2026-04-09). The 10 rows also cluster tightly in geography and time: Newark, Delaware accounts for 6 entries (Hexa, Interfaze, Promake, SpaceZero, Meet Caria, SOLAR-TFT), and 5 of the 10 rounds fall between 2026-01-13 and 2026-06-16 (Meet Caria through Hexa/Interfaze). The stage mix trends early: Pre-Seed appears 6 times (including Hexa, Interfaze, SpaceZero, Meet Caria, SOLAR-TFT, and Promake as Seed), with late-stage rounds present but less frequent (Series B includes Hippo Video and Duality Technologies).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round here, and how does it compare to the rest of the listed funding amounts?
The largest disclosed amount is Duality Technologies at $30M on 2021-10-05 (Series B). That dwarfs the next-largest disclosed rounds—Contlo at $10M (2024-03-05) and Hippo Video at $8M (2023-02-15)—while multiple Newark entries sit at $1M or below (e.g., Meet Caria $1M on 2026-01-13; SpaceZero $10K on 2026-04-09).
Do multiple rounds cluster in a narrow date window, or are they spread evenly across years?
They cluster near the top of the date range: 5 of the 10 rounds occur between 2026-01-13 (Meet Caria) and 2026-06-16 (Hexa and Interfaze). The full span runs from 2021-10-05 (Duality Technologies) through 2026-06-16 (Hexa/Interfaze).
Is Newark, Delaware over-represented versus Newark, New Jersey within this list?
Yes. Six of the 10 entries list Newark, Delaware (Hexa, Interfaze, Promake, SpaceZero, Meet Caria, SOLAR-TFT), while only three list Newark, New Jersey (Rightbot; Duality Technologies; Hippo Video). Interfaze and Hexa also share the same 2026-06-16 round date and $500K disclosed amount.
How does the stage mix look across these AI-funded entries?
Pre-Seed is the dominant stage classification, appearing in 6 rows (Hexa, Interfaze, SpaceZero, Meet Caria, SOLAR-TFT, and Promake is listed separately as Seed). Late-stage visibility is limited to two Series B rounds—Hippo Video at $8M on 2023-02-15 and Duality Technologies at $30M on 2021-10-05—while Seed appears once (Promake $4M on 2026-06-10; Rightbot is Seed as well at $6M on 2023-12-05, making two Seed rows).
Are there notable amount outliers or missing disclosures worth flagging for diligence?
Two extremes stand out on disclosed amounts: SpaceZero’s $10K on 2026-04-09 is far below most others, and Duality Technologies’ $30M on 2021-10-05 is far above the rest. Also, SOLAR-TFT (Pre-Seed, 2025-05-01) is listed with an undisclosed amount, so comparisons should treat it separately from the disclosed range.
