Across these 50 “Series Unknown” content and publishing rounds, the largest disclosed amount is Rumble’s $775M on 2024-12-20, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed entries (e.g., ONE Championship at $50M on 2024-10-16 and Skylight Frame at $30M on 2025-04-03). The smallest disclosed rounds are $10K (MeeTV on 2025-05-02) and $30K (Third World Press Foundation and Words without Borders on 2024-06-11), making the disclosed amounts highly uneven.
The dates shown span 2024-02-19 (JuggerBot 3D) through 2025-08-19 (PremiumData360), and several high-dollar deals cluster in mid-2024 and late-2024 (e.g., beehiiv at $32M on 2024-04-25; Velox at $38M on 2024-04-02; Medal at $13M on 2024-07-11; Perlego at $20M on 2024-10-08). Geography is dispersed by city, but U.S.-based companies account for many entries (e.g., BeamXR 2024-12-09, Medal 2024-07-11, Greenfly 2024-04-04), while the most prominent single outlier outside the U.S. is Rumble (Toronto) and Perlego (London).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round here, and how far above the rest is it?
Rumble’s $775M round (2024-12-20) is an outlier: the next-largest disclosed amounts visible are $760K (Ripstone, 2024-12-17) and then $50M (ONE Championship, 2024-10-16), with many other disclosed rounds far below that range (for example $32M beehiiv on 2024-04-25 and $38M Velox on 2024-04-02).
How much of the list is “Series Unknown” versus amount not disclosed, and does that distort comparisons?
Every row shown carries “Series Unknown” for the round type (50/50). Amounts are “undisclosed” in multiple entries (e.g., The IX Newsletter on 2025-06-16; The Lighthouse on 2025-06-16; ORIGO Education on 2025-03-11; FMC on 2024-08-28), so the concentration and outlier analysis primarily reflects only disclosed figures like Rumble’s $775M (2024-12-20) and Skylight Frame’s $30M (2025-04-03).
Are there notable temporal clusters among the disclosed rounds?
Yes: several sizable disclosed deals fall within spring 2024 and late 2024, including Velox $38M (2024-04-02), beehiiv $32M (2024-04-25), Medal $13M (2024-07-11), Admiral $19M (2024-08-21), and Perlego $20M (2024-10-08). The overall window runs from 2024-02-19 (JuggerBot 3D) to 2025-08-19 (PremiumData360).
Which cities or countries appear repeatedly enough to suggest a geographic bias?
There is no single city that repeats across multiple entries in the rows shown, but the U.S. appears frequently among locations (e.g., New York for Substack 2024-11-12, Dynamo 2024-11-12, and Words without Borders 2024-06-11; California for Skylight Frame 2025-04-03 and Greenfly 2024-04-04). Non-U.S. outliers include Rumble (Toronto, 2024-12-20) and Perlego (London, 2024-10-08).
Which entries sit at the extremes of the disclosed amount range?
At the low end, MeeTV’s disclosed amount is $10K (2025-05-02), while small disclosed rounds also include $30K entries like Third World Press Foundation and Words without Borders (both 2024-06-11). At the high end, besides Rumble’s $775M (2024-12-20), the next tier includes $760K Ripstone (2024-12-17) and then much larger, but still far below $775M, rounds such as ONE Championship’s $50M (2024-10-16).
