The 14 AI startups shown here span a funding timeline from September 2021 through June 2025, with Lisbon functioning as the clear geographic anchor — DOJO AI, Sensei, Visor.ai, Jungle AI, MedFacts, and several others all list Lisboa as their base. Porto and the surrounding northern region (Smartex.ai, Didimo in Leça Da Palmeira, Full Venue) form a secondary cluster, while Braga, Coimbra, and Aveiro each contribute one company.
Stage distribution skews early-to-mid: four Series A rounds, four Seed rounds, two pre-seeds, and a single Series B (Eneida, Coimbra, $11M, July 2024). Deal sizes vary sharply — from MedFacts' $50K pre-seed in December 2024 to Smartex.ai's $25M Series A in November 2022, which remains the largest disclosed raise in this view. The most recent close is DOJO AI's $1M pre-seed in June 2025.
